A U.S. consortium has submitted a proposal to invest one billion dollars in developing land surrounding the Incheon International Airport.
The proposal by PEG/Park and Prime Retail calls for the establishment of a comprehensive tourist complex with golf courses, hotels, convention centers and theaters.
The consortium is also reportedly interested in establishing a "Chinatown" near the airport in order to facilitate entry into the Chinese market ahead of the 2008 Olympics in Beijing.
