Vice Chairman of the Khanh Hoa Provincial People’s Committee Nguyen Chien Thang talked with Thanh Nien about some issues related to Vinpearl cable car system.
Does the Vinpearl system encroach on the Nha Trang Port?
According to the planning to 2020 approved by the Transport Ministry, Nha Trang Port is a tourism port. Its wharfs can receive cargo ships of 20,000 tonnages and passenger ships of 30,000 GRT. Considering Nha Trang Port’s planning and development strategy, responsible authorities have approved the construction of the Vinpearl cable car system, and the investor has followed the approved design. Thus, the Vinpearl system doesn’t encroach on Nha Trang Port Vietnam.
Does the Vinpearl system obstruct ships moving in and out of Nha Trang Port?
The height of the Vinpearl cable car system was based on Nha Trang Port’s planning and approved by Khanh Hoa Provincial People’s Committee and related agencies. Ships suitable to the technical conditions and capacity of the port can move in and out of the port easily and aren’t obstructed by Vinpearl. Ships with sizes surpassing wharfs’ capacity can stay outside the port and use other means to land passengers.
Will Nha Trang Port be expanded to receive large-sized ships?
Some people suggest that in order to receive such big-sized ships as the Aurora, Nha Trang Port should be expanded to the north or the east. The issue of expansion is a macro issue, which requires careful research and consideration since it can’t be separated from the sceneries of Nha Trang Port and several sites with great historical and cultural values like the Institute of Oceanography and the Dao Dai Palace Complex.
Besides Nha Trang Port Vietnam, in the future, Khanh Hoa will have other tourism ports such as Ba Ngoi and Van Phong which will be able to receive large-sized ships.
