One of the biggest projects
is the construction of a mega smart city spanning 272 hectares in Hai Boi
commune, Dong Anh district, Hanoi, with total investment of nearly 4.2 billion
USD. Its investors - Vietnamese BRG Group and Japanese-based trading company
Sumitomo - aim to build it into the largest smart urban area in the Southeast
Asia.
The investors proposed establishing five companies to execute five component
projects, which are scheduled to start this year and be completed in 2030.
In the first phase, the Sumitomo-BRG joint venture will pour over 1 billion USD
into facilities on an area of over 73 hectares.
Once completed, the smart city is expected to bring great impacts on the real
estate market in Hanoi.
In the northeast province of Quang Ninh, the Vision Transportation Group (VTG),
Hai Dang JSC, and Sunny World Property Development Corp Businesses proposed
three large-scale projects with total investment amounting to 10-15 billion
USD, in Van Don island, which is targeted to become a special economic zone.
Those include a high-speed railway route linking Mong Cai and Van Don, the Hon
Net - Con Ong complex of seaport, industrial and urban areas, and the urban
complex in the north of Cai Bau island.
The proposed Van Don - Mong Cai railway will have a length of 100km, connecting
Mong Cai border gate with Van Don special economic zone, with the central
station located at the North Cai Bau urban complex. It will be used for
passengers and improve transportation.
Meanwhile, the Hon Net - Con Ong seaport project, worth 1.2 billion USD, will
span a total area of 500ha. The construction of the port system would be done
in phases. In the first stage, a wharf with length at 350 – 400 meters will be
developed to accommodate the 150,000 DWT (Deadweight Tonnage) vessels.
The urban complex in the north of Cai Bau island will include a residential
area and shopping and service areas on 5,000 ha of land. It will be connected
to Van Don Airport and the railway route and the Van Don Heritage road in the
southern part of the island.
Meanwhile, Banyan Tree Holdings Limited received permission to double its
investment in Laguna Lang Co resort complex in Thua Thien-Hue province in April
2018. Accordingly, the firm would increase its charter capital from 175 million
USD to 300 million USD and its investment capital from 875 million USD to 2
billion USD to add casino business and other facilities.
The project has put into use the Angsana Lang Co hotel with 229 rooms and a
golf course with total investment of 230 million USD. Nearly 300 million USD is
being poured into a five-star hotel, 50 retail shops, and 249 villas.

During the two days of November 14th – 15th, at the Provincial Cultural Palace, the Department of Industry and Trade organized a conference to connect the product consumption of the ethnic minorities and the mountainous areas in 2024. There was the attendance of the representatives of leaders of a number of departments, branches, businesses, manufacturers and distributors inside and outside the province.
The One Commune One Product (OCOP) programme is reshaping the rural economy of Lac Son district, helping improve living standards, particularly among the ethnic minority communities in remote areas of Lac Son district.
The Van Mai dam xanh (Bangana lemassoni) fish has long been famous for its unique and delicious flavour, earning a spot on the menus of many restaurants and attracting food connoisseurs. In recent years, residents in Van Mai commune, Mai Chau district, have expanded their fish farming areas and striven to build a strong reputation for their product. They are also working to establish it as an OCOP (One Commune, One Product) item to increase their income.
Outstanding rural industrial products of Hoa Binh province in 2024 were recently honoured and granted certificates, becoming a source of pride for producers and also a boost for local economic development. The honourees are all deeply imbued with the local cultural identity and boast considerable commercial potential, helping popularise the image of Hoa Binh to domestic and international consumers. This is also a solid stepping stone for rural industrial establishments to develop.
In the first 10 months of 2024, Hoa Binh city made significant progress in job creation and labour exports, sending 112 workers abroad through partnerships with authorised recruitment firms.
An award ceremony to announce the official certification for Mai Chau district’s Bangana lemassoni fish, a specialty of the locality because of its unique flavour, was held recently in the district.
