Mekong Delta to receive investment boost

Ho Chi Minh City will host a conference on May 22 to introducing the investment environment in the Mekong Delta.

Experts will share experience in making the regional investment climate attractive to domestic and foreign businesses.
 
Nguyen Huu De, Deputy Director of VCCI Can Tho, said the conference will provide necessary information for businesses wishing to invest in the Mekong Delta, contributing to developing an effective supply chain in the region.
Pham Thanh Khon, Vice Director of the local Department of Planning and Development, noted that the Mekong Delta is becoming an attractive destination for businesses due to its improved investment environment.
He added that Kien Giang, Dong Thap, Ben Tre and Can Tho in the region are among the top 10 localities having the highest Provincial Competitiveness Index (PCI) in 2013.
The event, co-organised by the Vietnam Chamber of Commerce and Industry (VCCI) in Can Tho and Mekong Promotion Club (Mekong PC), will focus on the region’s advantages, including raw materials for agricultural development, diverse terrain for eco-tourism, and the huge demand for infrastructure investment.
