Removing obstacles to accelerate key industrial park projects

Mr. Tran Van Hau, Vice Chairman of the Thai Nguyen Provincial People's Committee, recently chaired a meeting to review the progress of compensation, resettlement, and infrastructure development for Song Cong II Industrial Park – Phase 2 and West Pho Yen Industrial Park – Phase 1.

Viglacera Thai Nguyen JSC is developing both projects. At Song Cong II Industrial Park – Phase 2, infrastructure construction in Subzone 2 is largely complete. The area has attracted six secondary investors, with an occupancy rate of about 66% of its commercial land and total registered investment expected to reach around US$400 million. Meanwhile, land clearance in Subzone 1 is being accelerated, although several issues remain unresolved.

For West Pho Yen Industrial Park – Phase 1, the investor is completing procedures related to planning, environmental assessment, and land clearance to meet all conditions required to begin construction in the near future.

During the meeting, representatives of provincial departments, local authorities, and the investor discussed challenges related to land clearance, resettlement area construction, technical infrastructure development, and legal procedures. They also proposed solutions to ensure the projects remain on schedule.

Concluding the meeting, the Vice Chairman instructed local authorities, the Provincial Industrial Parks Management Board, and the investor to accelerate land clearance, prioritize compensation and site handover in eligible areas, and strive to complete these tasks by August. He also called on provincial departments and localities to strengthen coordination and promptly resolve outstanding issues to ensure the project progresses as planned.
