Vice Secretary of provincial Party Committee Ngo Van Tuan speaks at the working session.

The province has eight industrial zones which have been accepted by the Prime Minister to be added to the Development Plan of Vietnamese Industrial Zones until 2015 with a vision to 2020. It approved the 1/500 detailed planning for these zones, with a combined area of 1,507 hectares, including 978 hectares of industrial land. To date, three out of the eight industrial zones, namely Luong Son, Da River’s Left Bank and Yen Quang, have infrastructure investors. Four zones, namely Luong Son, Da River’s Left Bank, Mong Hoa and Nam Luong Son, have attracted 95 projects, including 24 FDI and 71 domestic ones, with a combined registered capital of 499.85 million USD and 7.27 trillion VND. Enterprises have created jobs for thousands of labourers, and contributed importantly to the province’s industrial development and import-export turnover.

Along with sharing several difficulties, the Management Board of Industrial Zones made proposals related to workforce, mechanisms, policies, and funds to serve management and investment in development of industrial zones in the locality.

Speaking at the event, Vice Secretary Tuan acknowledged and appreciated achievements gained by the management board over the past years.

He asked the board to make a report assessing and proposing measures to attract more investments in industrial zones in the new tenure of the provincial Party Committee.

The board was requested to well conduct planning and planning management, and ensure infrastructure linkages in industrial zones.

Attention should be paid to stepping up administrative reform, developing high-quality human resources, protecting the environment, improving land clearance, choosing competent infrastructure investors, proposing measures to attract more investments, and helping enterprises deal with difficulties so as to promote production and business.

On this occasion, Tuan visited Coasia CM Vina Company in Luong Son Industrial Zone and Sankon Vietnam Company in the Da River’s Left Bank Industrial Zone./.
