Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Phan Ngoc Tho also confirmed that in 2020, the province will continue to complete technical, economic and social infrastructure in combination with protecting the environment, and creating favorable environment for investors to come to the zones, thus providing jobs for local laborers.
He urged the Management Board of Thua Thien Hue Economic and Industrial Zones to issue preferential policies to call on strategic and professional investors and prestigious businesses who run their operation in connection with protecting the environment.
Statistics of the management board show that there are currently nearly 200 businesses registering their operations in the zones. In 2019, the stable operations of the businesses brought about over VND28 trillion in turnover, over VND20 trillion in industrial production value, VND2.663 trillion in budget collection, and USD688 million in export turnover.
Furthermore, the businesses helped create jobs for 31,500 laborers./.
