HEPZA Director Hua Quoc Trung said investment attraction has become more positive since Vietnam reopened to international arrivals on March 15, 2022, which has facilitated the travel of investors.
Thanks to that, many have come to local industrial parks to explore investment chances as Vietnam is an attractive and safe investment destination for foreign investors, he noted.
