The construction of a tunnel across Viet Nam's longest pass is on track to meet a May 19, 2005 deadline with its northern part to be completed on Nov. 30, said project executives.

The Hazama-Cienco 6 contractor, a joint venture with Japan, said so far more than 99 percent of the project has been completed despite numerous difficulties during the construction emerging from the Hai Van pass's high, rough position and harsh climate.

The company has applied several inventions to save billions of Vietnamese dong for the ODA-funded project and received the Government's award.

The training work for the local project managers and maintainance workers has also made progress, said the Hazama-Cienco 6 source.

The Japanese Hazama company has tranferred technology for the project and the tunnel operation and maintenance to its local partner - the Cienco 6 company.
