HANOI: Dong Nai, a southern province, aims to become one of Vietnam’s three largest economic centres, after Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, according to the province’s development goals for 2030.

The province has ambitions to become a centre for international trade, tourism and services, with a world-class urban area based on smart models, with an additional focus on developing the green economy.

According to the vice-chairwoman of the Provincial People’s Committee Nguyen Thi Hoang, Dong Nai has many opportunities.

To achieve the targets, Dong Nai will focus on improving the business and investment environment to create favourable conditions for businesses, with a special emphasis on becoming an ideal and safe destination for investors.

It is offering many other solutions to attract investors and quickly deploy transport projects with a system connecting it to other locations in the South-East region and other economic regions, including Long Thanh airport and Dong Nai airport.

Dong Nai plans to build green industrial parks, innovation centres and centralised information technology parks. Projects will include developing an airport urban area, a Long Thanh airport ecological urban area and Dong Nai riverside urban chains, with priority given for Bien Hoa City, Long Thanh District and Nhon Trach District.
