Secretary of the Hanoi Party Committee Hoang Trung Hai urged local authorities to facilitate the implementation progress of FDI and public-private partnership (PPP) projects, which are important resources for development.
Hanoi holds huge potential for development, for which Secretary of the Hanoi Party Committee Hoang Trung Hai requested that the city's Department of Planning and Investment seek ways to boost investment and attract more resources.
This would in turn transform Hanoi's economic structure and create more jobs, Hai said at a meeting with Hanoi's Department of Planning and Investment on August 2.
Concurrently, Hai urged local authorities to facilitate the implementation progress of FDI and PPP projects, which are important resources for development.
In the time to come, the department should focus on administrative reform, with the aim of reducing processing time for administrative procedures, Hai added.
According to Nguyen Manh Quyen, director of Hanoi's Department of Planning and Investment, in the first six months of 2018, the city approved 59 projects with investment capital of VND158.6 trillion (US$6.8 billion), while 12 PPP projects worth VND28.4 trillion (US$1.21 billion) are being implemented.
Among 59 cities and provinces that received foreign investment, Hanoi has attracted the largest amount of US$5.91 billion in foreign capital during the January - June period, 5.4 times higher than the same period of last year and equivalent to 164% of the year's target.
