On the afternoon of April 2nd, in Van Hung Commune, Van Ninh District, the Khanh Hoa Provincial People’s Committee, in coordination with Viglacera Yen My Industrial Park Development JSC, held the groundbreaking ceremony for the Doc Da Trang Industrial Park Project – a key project in the province’s industrial economic development strategy for the 2025–2030 period.

          The ceremony was held on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the liberation of Khanh Hoa Province (April 2, 1975 – April 2, 2025) and the 50th anniversary of the liberation of the South and national reunification (April 30, 1975 – April 30, 2025), with the attendance of representatives from the National Assembly, the Government, central ministries and agencies, leaders of Khanh Hoa Province, departments, domestic and foreign enterprises, and more than 200 distinguished guests.

The model of the Doc Da Trang Industrial Park Project

           The Doc Da Trang Industrial Park project was approved by the Prime Minister under Decision No. 234/QĐ-TTg dated March 18, 2024, and was granted an investment registration certificate by the Van Phong Economic Zone Authority (Certificate No. 0331325268, initially issued on March 29, 2024, and amended for the first time on January 8, 2025). The investor is Viglacera Yen My Industrial Park Development JSC. The project covers an area of approximately 288 hectares in Van Hung Commune (Van Ninh District) and Ninh Tho Commune (Ninh Hoa Town), with a total investment of over VND 1,807 billion and an operational term of 50 years.

          The industrial park is oriented to attract investments in clean industries, high-tech manufacturing and processing, precision mechanics, electronics, supporting industries, warehousing, etc.

          According to Decision No. 3121/QĐ-UBND dated December 2, 2024, by the Khanh Hoa Provincial People’s Committee approving the 1/2000-scale zoning plan of Doc Da Trang Industrial Park, the project covers nearly 288 hectares, of which about 204 hectares are for industrial production and warehousing, with a maximum construction density of 70% and a maximum building height of 5 stories. The service area spans over 4.2 hectares and includes commercial, healthcare, sports facilities, workers’ accommodation, product exhibition zones, and parks.

          Since early 2024, after the Prime Minister approved the investment policy, the Provincial Party Committee and the People’s Committee have directed the Van Phong Economic Zone Authority, local authorities, and related agencies to urgently implement the provisions of the investment policy decision to expedite project development. Key achievements include guidance on detailed project timelines, issuance of the investment registration certificate, completion and approval of the zoning plan in December 2024, and ongoing support for the investor in preparing environmental impact assessments, feasibility reports, and other procedures.

          Regarding site clearance, the People’s Committees of Van Ninh District and Ninh Hoa Town have developed plans for land recovery, compensation, and clearance. Resources are being mobilized to implement these plans. It is expected that by Q2/2025, the investor will obtain construction permits to commence Phase 1 on a 100-hectare area, with the remaining areas progressing per the approved investment certificate.

          During site clearance, provincial and local leaders and the political system have actively engaged with residents to address grievances and ensure reasonable, lawful compensation, thereby supporting affected households in stabilizing their lives.

          At the ceremony, Mr. Nguyen Tan Tuan, Chairman of the Khanh Hoa Provincial People’s Committee, emphasized that the project will create jobs for over 16,000 workers, increase incomes, generate state budget revenue, drive industrial development, and attract investment to the Van Phong Economic Zone. It will also accelerate the province’s economic restructuring toward industrialization and modernization, contributing significantly to the socioeconomic development of Khanh Hoa Province and the Van Phong EZ in particular. This project helps realize the goals set in Resolution 09 of the Politburo and Resolution 55 of the National Assembly.

          The Chairman also committed that the province will accompany the investor, directing departments and local authorities to resolve obstacles, accelerate site clearance, and complete legal procedures. It is expected that by Q2/2025, Phase 1 (100 hectares) will be ready for construction, aiming to begin operations in 2026.

          On the investor’s side, Viglacera Yen My IP Development JSC pledged to mobilize all resources to develop synchronized infrastructure in line with the investment certificate and put the project into operation as planned.

The Doc Da Trang Industrial Park Project is a vivid testament to Khanh Hoa’s determination to achieve the development goals set in Resolution 09 and Resolution 55 and serves as a powerful catalyst for attracting investment to the Van Phong Economic Zone in the near future.
