Development of tourism complex near fourth Mekong Bridge
VIENTIANE,FEB 16 (KPL) - The Lao government has given a green light to a Korean company to invest in a USD 41 million tourism complex project in Bokeo province, said Mr Choumpheng Vilaisane, Head of the Investment Promotion Section of Bokeo province.
Mr Choumpheng said that the Korean company signed the contract on this project in 2007.
Scheduled for completion in 2015, this complex would have a five-star hotel, a golf course, guesthouses, restaurant, swimming pool and entertainment place.
The project covered the field site of the fourth Mekong bridge and the construction work just started a few days ago.
Mr Choumpheng said that since 1995 most of the investment had been in agriculture and animal husbandry. However, he said that recently investors showed an interest in tourism and this had become an important sector now and in the future.
