Ministry of Planning and Investment (MPI) has asked the management boards of
industrial and economic zones in provinces and centrally-run cities to
submit reports on the construction and development of industrial and coastal
economic zones this year to make a comprehensive evaluation on their operations.
Specifically, they are
requested to focus on clarifying the achievements, shortcomings and suggest
solutions (if any).
It is necessary for the
management boards to provide information on investment attraction at coastal
economic zones, the use of land as well as the implementation of industrial part
infrastructure this year.
Reports should be submitted
