Vinh Phuc (VNA) – The northern province of Vinh Phuc’s efforts in attracting investors have recently been rewarded with an influx of foreign investment.
The province has intensified investment promotion activities in promising markets as well as countries and territories with advanced science and technology.
At the same time, work has been stepped up in localities to zone land for investment projects.
With infrastructure construction in industrial areas, on-the-spot human resources development and administrative reform, Vinh Phuc has tackled difficulties facing businesses.
The province paid special attention to luring science-technology intensive projects in the fields of mechanics, electronics, material construction, support industry and agriculture.
Delegations of provincial officials have travelled to countries with developed industries, and cutting-edge science and technology to woo investors.
