But, over the past 8 months, these targets have exceeded the set plan. To continue developing more sustainably, province-based IPs are taking the initiative in all solutions to attract investment capital effectively. The province is also well preparing conditions such as clean land fund, proactively planning IPs, technology ecosystems, deploying human resource training, building social housing estates for workers, fully and promptly providing labor resources for enterprises to invest in the province.

Mr. Tin said that in the period of 2020-2025, Binh Duong has aimed at developing sustainable IPs under the "3-in- 1" model (including industrial, urban and service zones) with a synchronous and modern system of technical and social infrastructure. As of now, Binh Duong has set up many incentive mechanisms and policies to support investment in the local IPs while actively supporting and removing obstacles in legal procedures on land for secondary investors in the local IPs. With many positive and effective solutions in accompanying enterprises such as improving the business climate, completing infrastructure facilities…, province-based IPs have continued being the driving force for the local economic growth.
