Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc cut the ribbon to open the Trung Luong-My Thuan expressway at a ceremony on Monday which also kick-started construction of the next section from My Thuan to Can Tho city.
With an investment capital of VND4.86 trillion (US$211 million) and six lanes, the 23-kilometer expressway will be completed within two years, allowing vehicles to run up to 100 kilometers per hours.
