Construction of the border gate administrative zone, trade, service and cultural centre and a road system between the two border gates covers 23.5ha.

The management board of the Cau Treo international border gate economic zone will invest VND130 billion (US$7.2 million) in building the area in Vietnam and the construction project in Laos will be done with non-refundable aid from the Vietnamese Government.

Bolikhamsay’s Deputy Governor Thoong On Khamphuban said that the project will be submitted to the government for early approval.
