The PM also urged the ministry to implement agreements on construction investment and announcement to open dry ports, including an investment project on a dry port conducted by the Saigon Newport Corporation, in accordance with regulations.
According to the Ministry of Transport, the current plan has proven insufficient, as several localities have demand for dry ports, but they have not been part of the plan.
Earlier, the Saigon Newport Corporation asked for investment permission on a dry port in Phu Thanh commune, Duc Trach district in the southern province of Dong Nai, which was not in the existing plan.-VNA
