According to the Chairman of the State Administration Council Senior General Min Aung Hlaing, it has been planning to develop a seaport in #Ngaputaw Township, Ayeyarwady Region.
He informed it when he met with businesspersons in Pathein Township on February 7.
As a matter of fact, Pathein Port used to host sea vessels before. However, due to the siltation in the rivers, the harbour has now silted up and the ships could not dock later, Senior General said.
With the purpose to uplift the regional socio-economic development and to promote tourism, the government is planning to establish Ngaputaw seaport to access the sea vessels and to upgrade the Pathein Airport.
The feasibility study is expected to be carried out for the project of upgrading Pathein Airport, Senior General Min Aung Hlaing said.
At present, the State Administration Council is conducting to build a new international port and airport in #Mudon, Mon State on land that has more than 4,600 acres. The Mudon International Port will be constructed in Mudon near Balouk Nyaung Waing and Wekali villages.
