Ha Noi will give investment licences to a series of large projects by the year-end after the capital city has synchronously implemented solutions on improving investment and business environment, the People’s Committee said.
Thailand’s Siam City Cement Group wants to expand investment in the production and supply of construction materials and waste treatment in Viet Nam’s southern province of Dong Nai.
The construction of Binh Thuan Province’s first waste treatment plant has begun. It will be able to treat 400 tonnes of waste a day once it starts in June 2017.
Ha Noi is offering incentives to enterprises, particularly
those from Japan, to apply advanced technologies in waste treatment in
the capital, municipal People''s Committee Chairman Nguyen Duc Chung
said.
The capital city is calling for investment from both domestic and
foreign investors in waste treatment, despite struggling to sell the
idea due to a number of obstacles.
