The plan features several key zones, comprising the airport central area, the 'heart" of the city; managing large volumes of cargo and passengers; the core urban area, with financial towers, banks and five-star hotels serving international professionals; a high-tech industrial cluster attracting sectors of semiconductors, pharmaceuticals and green technologies; and a logistics and eco-tourism zone.
