Parasi airfield

Two important components of this project are due to be completed in 2012. These are the security fence and the terminal building. While the airfield is already in use, flights have yet to be included in the airline’s normal schedule because an agent has yet to be appointed and confirmed by the airline.


In late March, some disturbing news was carried in the local media about the closure of the airport. The committee representing the Parasi Land Trustees rebutted those claims. It was noted that this was orchestrated by a certain disgruntled individual who appears to be concerned about his own welfare more than anyone else. The Trustees had issued a formal response and letter to assure the authorities and the general public of their commitment, and the whole community at Parasi, to re-opening the airport.
