Laos’ City urged to speed up urban planning
The cabinet has instructed Vientiane authorities to speed up zoning for the development of different areas of the capital so that management of the country’s urban heart can be better regulated.
Speaking at a press conference after the government’s monthly meeting at the end of February, government spokesperson Dr Chaleun Yiapaoher said the cabinet had urged the capital’s authorities to place a greater focus on zoning.
The city should consist of separate zones for agriculture, preservation, offices, industry, and special economic zones, he said.
