Nghe An becomes ideal integrated investment hub

23/09/2019

As more local and foreign companies are flocking into the central province of Nghe An, industrial parks such as WHA Industrial Zone are set to become a promising address for their investments.

Nghe An province has attracted 690 investment projects with total registered capital of VND143 trillion ($6.2 billion) in the previous five years.

Cross-border connectivity, strong support local leaders, and the province’s strategic geographical location are the key drivers which are turning Nghe An into a magnet for investment.

By virtue of its location, Nghe An has a ­coastline of 82 kilometres with convenient access to three deep seaports. The province also boasts an international airport, a railway station, good quality national highways, and four border gates to Laos.

The province provides also sufficient cross-border connectivity for investors to key markets in the region such as Laos, Thailand, and China.

In addition, Nghe An’s infrastructure and expressway network has been accelerated for competition. A new expressway is slated to be completed in 2022, along with a high-speed train and Vinh International Airport, which will further improve the regional links and establish the province as a major industrial hub of Vietnam.

Furthermore, Nghe An is attracting investors thanks to its abundant labour force. The province has a population of 3.2 million people, of which 1.9 million are of working age.

The constantly improving investment environment and preferential treatment such as special tax incentives at local industrial parks have paved the way for the stellar rise of investments in the province. In particular, investors will enjoy a tax reduction of 50 per cent in the first 15 years of operations and a 100 per cent tax exemption in the first four years.

Speaking at last week’s investment conference, chairman of Nghe An People’s Committee, Thai Thanh Quy, said that the province has a lot of room for development, so it is expecting businesses to increase investment in the locality. Local leaders are committed to accompanying investors and valuing their success, thereby building up mutual trust.

The area is dynamic and a strategic gateway to major markets such as China, South Korea, and Japan. It is quickly becoming an integrated hub of business, education, manufacturing, transportation, and logistics.”
