Duong Chan Vu, Deputy General Director of Long Giang Industrial Park Development Co., Ltd. said that since its establishment in 2007, the company has invested 100 million USD in developing modern infrastructure for the whole industrial zone. It has attracted 56 enterprises from China, Japan, the Republic of Korea, and Malaysia to invest in building factories with a total capital of more than 1.6 billion USD. Annually, the zone contributes more than 2 billion USD to Tien Giang's GRDP, and is creating jobs for about 25,000 workers.

Chairman of the provincial People's Committee Nguyen Van Vinh said that to remove difficulties and obstacles for businesses, the committee has established a team to appraise non-state budget investment projects in the province. The team is responsible for reviewing and appraising projects in the area to transfer to relevant agencies for settlement in accordance with regulations; and addressing recommendations, removing difficulties and obstacles, and creating favourable conditions for investors to implement their projects.

In addition, the provincial People's Committee has assigned the responsibility to the management board to regularly monitor the production and investment situation of investors at IPs, in order to promptly support and help them solve difficulties.

On the other hand, the committee has also assigned the Department of Planning and Investment to advise it to balance the budget capital to invest in improving the infrastructure linked to industrial zones, and create favourable conditions for investment attraction./.
