At a working session with Binh Dinh authorities in June, Mitsubishi Motors Vietnam’s general director Kenichi Horinouchi said the south-central coastal province was among the company’s top choices thanks to the developed transport and technical infrastructure system coupled with a huge clean land fund which was favourable for building automobile component plants.
Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Ho Quoc Dung said he hopes Mitsubishi Motors would invest in the province, pledging favourable policies for foreign investors, especially the automobile plant.
Dung said the province is speeding up administrative reforms and improving the investment climate, which together with the availability of clean land will create favourable conditions for foreign investors.
The second project is a 300-bed hospital in Nhon Hoi Economic Zone which would cover an area of 3.5 hectares and have total investment of 15 million USD.
The previous list of projects seeking investment in Binh Dinh included four, of which a 24 million USD hospital and a 4 billion USD thermo-electricity centre are no longer seeking investment as they are no longer appropriate to the province’s development planning.
The other two projects, including Cat Nhon solid waste treatment project with an estimated investment of 75 million USD and a road upgrade project worth around 100 million USD, have found investors.
According to the provincial Economic Zone (EZ) Management Board, Nhon Hoi EZ and other industrial zones (IZs) in the province attracted 33 FDI projects as of February, worth 506 million USD in registered capital. Twelve countries and territories have invested in EZs and IZs in the province with China, Singapore and Japan being the largest investors.
The Ministry of Planning and Investment’s statistics showed Binh Dinh attracted more than 2.3 million USD worth of FDI in January-July, with two new projects and one existing project raising its registered capital.
