Prioritize implementation of feasible projects

Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee - Nguyen Quynh Thien visited some enterprises at Hoa Phu Industrial Park.

Hoa Phu Industrial Park (phase 3, Phu Quoi commune), proposed investor is Hoa Phu Joint Stock Company with a project scale of 157 hectares. It is assessed to have many advantages and potential to attract investment enterprises after completion.

According to Mr. Ha Duy Tin - General Director of Hoa Phu Joint Stock Company, Hoa Phu Industrial Park (phase 1 and 2) has been completed, currently there are 40 secondary investment projects (including 31 projects with foreign investment capital) invested with a total registered capital of over 2,975 billion VND and 639.35 million USD with an average investment rate of 99.24 billion VND/ha, the industrial park occupancy rate is over 99%, the remaining actual land area available for lease is 0.55ha.

“Hoa Phu Joint Stock Company plans to expand Hoa Phu Industrial Park (phase 3) adjacent to Hoa Phu Industrial Park (phase 2) with 157 hectares, this is low-productivity agricultural land. At the same time, with the new policy on compensation and resettlement support to hand over land to the State for industrial parks, people highly agree.

Regarding the planning of technical infrastructure connection, it is very convenient to connect Hoa Phu Industrial Park (phase 1 and 2) with Hoa Phu Industrial Park (phase 3). Meanwhile, the centralized wastewater treatment plant has a capacity of 6,900 m3/day and night, meeting the wastewater demand for all 3 phases of Hoa Phu Industrial Park" - Mr. Tin said.

Currently, the number of affected households according to the preliminary survey is about 40 households. According to Hoa Phu Joint Stock Company, the Hoa Phu Industrial Park expansion project (phase 3) has not been allocated the industrial park land use quota in Decision No. 326/QD-TTg of the Prime Minister, so it is not eligible to carry out the procedures for proposing investment policies of the Provincial People's Committee according to regulations.

Hoa Phu Joint Stock Company also proposed to expand Hoa Phu Industrial Park (phase 3) according to the policies of the Provincial Party Committee, planning, and implementation plan of the Provincial Planning approved by the Prime Minister and ensuring sufficient conditions for expanding industrial parks according to regulations, so it is necessary to adjust the land use targets of industrial parks of new industrial parks that cannot be implemented in the period of 2021-2030 for potential newly established industrial parks that can be implemented.

At the survey of the progress of the industrial park project, Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee - Nguyen Quynh Thien agreed with the opinions and requested the departments, branches, and the Economic Zone Management Board to focus on assessing the ability and potential to implement the Dong Binh Industrial Park project and Gilimex Vinh Long, Hoa Phu (phase 3) and prioritize the implementation of feasible projects.

In particular, the Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee noted that it is necessary to carry out necessary procedures to be able to hand over an additional 12 hectares of industrial land, and soon hand over 157 hectares of industrial land (currently only 145 hectares) for the Hoa Phu Industrial Park project (phase 3) because this project has many favorable conditions to implement the project and attract secondary investors.

“It is necessary to have new industrial parks to solve production, business and economic development of the province in the coming time. Strive to have 1-2 new industrial parks in operation by the end of 2026. After 2030, we will continue to plan other industrial parks and there must be a specific roadmap for implementation,” Mr. Nguyen Quynh Thien emphasized.
