Government approves to set up Southeast Quang Tri Economic Zone
According to Quang Tri province, Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung recentlty signed the decision on the establishment of the Southeast Quang Tri Economic Zone (EZ), which was designed to become an international trade exchange centre with economic activities to be potentially connected with the East-West Economic Corridor.
The Southeast Quang Tri Economic Zone, covering nearly 23,900 hectares spanning 17 communes in the southeast districts of Hai Lang, Trieu Phong, and Gio Linh, will house industrial zones, office blocks, residential areas, tourism-services and port areas.
The new EZ is expected to fully tap available potentials to serve socio-economic development, national defence and security protection of the central Quang Tri and the whole central region.
Quang Tri province was one of the most devastated localities during the Vietnam war and often suffers great losses from severe weather conditions such as storms, floods and whirlwinds.
