Description
According to Niue's 2009 Donor Partners Development and Investment Budget-Bilateral and Multilateral Assistance, in 2009, China granted Niue 500,000 NZD for Hanan International Airport (IUE) renovation. The project has a total cost of USD 350,000 (around NZD 489,129), and it includes an extension to the terminal and a security fence. In 2010, there is an argument from the Tourist Authority's chairperson, Hima Douglas, that the design of the building isn't conducive to the handling of passengers. However, Niue's High Commissioner defended that the new shelter over the arrivals and departures area looks impressive from the outside and people are already appreciating the facility.
