Da Nang has, over recent times, focused on removing difficulties and obstacles related to administrative procedures, land and site clearance in order to expedite the construction progress of industrial parks (IPs) and industrial clusters (ICs), thereby meeting the needs of enterprises for attracting investment and expanding production and business.

Da Nang city is speeding up the development of new industrial parks and industrial clusters. Picture is taken by KHANH HOA at the Apple Film Da Nang Co., Ltd, located in Hoa Cam Industrial Park, Cam Le District.

Many IPs and ICs to be developed

Many IPs and ICs are expected to be developed in Hoa Vang District, including Hoa Ninh IP, Hoa Nhon IP, Hoa Cam IP at the second stage, Supporting IP serving the Da Nang Hi-tech Park, Hoa Nhon IC, Hoa Son split stone village IC, logistics centre, expanded logistics centre, and a warehouse south of ​​the Da Nang Port.

Among them, Supporting IP serving the Da Nang Hi-tech Park, Hoa Nhon IC, and Hoa Son split stone village IC are on track to be developed.

Following Resolution No. 07-NQ/TU dated July 7, 2021 on construction and development of Hoa Vang District by 2030, with a vision to 2045, the locality strives to develop 2-3 ICs by 2025, and 4-5 ICs by 2030.

Mr. Ngo Ngoc Truc, Deputy Head of the Economic and Infrastructure Office under Hoa Vang District People's Committee, said that 90% of the site clearance for the 247,522m² Hoa Nhon IC has been completed.

Most recently, the Hoa Vang District authorities have proposed two options for expanding the Hoa Nhon IC to neighbouring areas.

Specifically, under the first option, the Hoa Nhon IC will be expanded with an area of ​​62.14ha to the northwest. This option, if implemented, will solve the long-standing problem related to abandoned agricultural land and the relocation of some households out of a polluted environment due to the mining activities of enterprises.

According to the second option, the Hoa Nhon IC will be expanded to the southeast with a total area of ​​62.14ha. This location is convenient in term of compensation, but the technical infrastructure development work will require major investment capital.

“Finally, the district authorities have chosen the first option. At present, the municipal Department of Industry and Trade is finalising the working regulations of the evaluation council and the set of criteria for selecting investors to build technical infrastructure at the soon-to-be-expanded Hoa Nhon IC", Mr. Truc said.

Ensuring infrastructure to attract businesses

The Da Nang Department of Industry and Trade is, currently, promoting investment attraction in new ICs, such as Hoa Nhon, Hoa Khanh Nam, and Cam Le according to the approved plan.

More than 90% of the workload on the first stage of the Cam Le IC project in Hoa Tho Tay Ward, Cam Le District, Da Nang, has been completed, according to the Department.

Meanwhile, about 40% of the workload on the second stage of the Cam Le IC project has been finished. And the construction progress of the project is expected to be completed in 2022.

The site clearance for the Hoa Nhon IC project is undertaken in order to call for investment.

According to Mrs. Le Thi Kim Phuong, Director of the municipal Department of Industry and Trade, her unit is advising the municipal People's Committee to issue a set of criteria for evaluation and selection of technical infrastructure investors.

Once issued, the set of criteria will be used to attract and select infrastructure investors for ICs.

“Moreover, the Department continues to advise the municipal People's Committee to develop and implement a management, operation and selection plan for secondary investors to arrange businesses to operate in the Cam Le IC project” added Mrs. Phuong.

Mr. Nguyen Xuan Son, the Director of the Huong Que Production, Processing and Import-Export Company Limited, expressed that the development of new IPs and ICs has been the desire of many businesses for many years, especially small and micro-sized ones, to solve the problem of lacking premises as well as meet the their needs for expanding production and business activities in the future.
