New concept to build airports
http://www.sina.com.cn 2003/10/24 11:00  上海英文星报

  WITHIN 10 years, China will finish the construction and renovation of 130 airports around the country and architects want to have a say in devising the most economic way to operate them.

  "Airports in China have long been regarded as the image of the nation and its cities. This concept leads to high investment and resource waste," said Peter Guo-Hua Fu, a Shanghai-born Canadian-Chinese architect.

  In his newly released "New Design Approaches to the Modern Terminal", he raises a new concept that an airport is a large, comprehensive industrial operation with high profits rather than just basic infrastructures.

  The book is the first in Chinese to offer theoretical guidance in airport terminal design based on a review of more than 100 major international airport terminals around the world.

  Experts say that most of China's airports don't make a profit because they fail to create a good environment for consumers. In many Western countries, more than 70 per cent of an airports' profits come from commercial activities on top of landing fees.

  Since the 1990s, China's aviation industry has achieved rapid development and the industry is expected to maintain its annual growth rate of more than 10 per cent.
