"Meanwhile, Thailand’s southernmost town of Betong in Yala province will finally get an airport, linking the popular tourist town with the rest of the country by air, officials say.
Cabinet has already approved 1.9 billion baht in funding for the project, which will be some 12 kilometers outside the city center on a rubber plantation. Construction, scheduled to begin next year, is expected to take three years. "
