The central province of Quang Ngai has approved in principle FLC Group’s investment in six projects at the Van Tuong Urban Area in Binh Son District with total capital of VND13 trillion (US$557.2 million).

These include the Van Tuong 1 urban area with total area of 497,902sq.m; FLC Quang Ngai ecological urban area with 353,123sq.m; Van Tuong 8 urban area with 458,846sq.m; FLC Quang Ngai Golf Links with 810,442sq.m; Van Tuong 4 urban area with 404,549sq.m and Van Tuong 7 urban area with 344,315sq.m.

The province asked FLC Group to build an environmental impact assessment report for the FLC Quang Ngai Golf Links project to submit to the Prime Minister for approval.

The group was also required to quickly finish the environmental impact assessment reports for the remaining five projects and submit them to the provincial leaders for approval.

The provincial People’s Committee would work out mechanisms and policies to support people who would be affected by the projects as well as implement land clearance and resettlement.

Quang Ngai Province also instructed relevant agencies to visit localities in which FLC’s projects will be implemented, such as FLC Quy Nhon in the central province of Binh Dinh, to assess the impact of the project on local residents. — VNS
