According to Mr. Nghiep, the locality has asked the investor to outline the project in writing so that the Soc Trang Provincial People’s Committee, through the Provincial Party Committee’s Standing Board, will plan for the investor to visit the field. When the survey is completed, the investor must prepare a detailed project for Soc Trang province to submit to the Government.

“The province has planned My Thanh and Dai Ngai industrial zones. If investors choose these two areas for the project, it will be very convenient in site clearance and investment policies," Nghiep said.
