The Thakhek Dream World City Project, which will consist of two zones, will be built on the Lao side of the Lao-Thai Friendship Bridge between Laos’s Khammouane Province and Thailand's Nakhon Phanom Province.
Signatory companies will focus on the development of zone B which is designed to build a five-star hotel with 40 floors, a 65-floor-building for rent and its infrastructure with a total investment of US$250 million.
The investors will develop zone C by building a 4-star hotel with 35 floors, a department store and its infrastructure with a total investment of US$120 million. Construction is expected to be complete in four years.
The Specific Economic Zone in Thakhek district is a priority of the Khammouane province, which focuses on turning 1,035 ha of land in the region of the 3rd Lao-Thai Friendship Bridge into a special economic zone and develop Thakhek district as a modern city to attract both domestic and foreign tourists.
