In a directive issued to member units recently, Minister of Construction Trần Hồng Minh called for urgent reforms aimed at simplifying the permit process, especially for investment projects that already meet detailed planning or urban design criteria.
The central province of Nghe An has targeted at least 75 new projects
with a total capital of above VND12 trillion (US$571 million) in 2014,
local authorities have said.
Enterprises had asked customs and taxation departments to simplify
procedures, according to an official from the Viet Nam Chamber of
Commerce and Industry (VCCI).
