Continue to increase investment attraction but selectively
"The results achieved show that Ba Ria - Vung Tau continues to be a destination of interest to domestic and foreign investors," said Mr. Le Ngoc Linh - Director of the Department of Planning and Investment.
In the coming time, Ba Ria - Vung Tau will focus on attracting investment to develop four key economic sectors including industry, seaports - logistics, tourism, and high-quality services according to the approved development plan.
However, the locality has always been steadfast in its goal of selectively attracting investment, prioritizing "green" projects that use modern technology and have great spillover effects. At the same time, it is determined not to accept projects that use old, outdated technology, consume a lot of natural resources, and harm the environment.
The People's Committee of Ba Ria - Vung Tau province has also approved and is implementing the investment promotion program for 2024; the industrial development program in the province; the trade promotion program... As well as actively operating Working Groups and Support Groups to support businesses and investors in accessing information; promoting the implementation of investment processes and procedures for projects; calling for investment in the period 2021-2030.
