Buon Ma Thuot, capital city of Dac Lac province, is to host an investment promotion forum for the Central Highlands on September 5, said Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Nguyen Phuong Nga.

Nga-taking over for former Spokesperson Le Dung, who has taken a new assignment-said the forum will provide an opportunity for regional provinces to keep domestic and overseas investors informed on the attractive opportunities, benefits, and incentives for investment boasted by the region.

The event is likely to attract strong participation, including provincial leaders from the Cambodia-Laos-Vietnam development triangle.

Foreign diplomatic corps in Vietnam , representatives from international financial institutions such as the World Bank, the Asian Development Bank and the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) and foreign businesses are also expected to attend the forum./.
