Speaking at the opening of the conference, Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Le Ngoc Chau informed that the Prime Minister approved the provincial planning for Hai Duong province until 2030, including 32 industrial parks, with a total area of ​​5,661 hectares. Currently, the province has 17 established industrial parks with an area of ​​2,738 hectares, with an occupancy rate of over 62%. Industrial parks have been playing a very important role in the industrialization and modernization process of the province.

Recently, the work of promoting and attracting investment in industrial parks has achieved certain results, attracting a number of large, high-quality, high-tech investment projects.

However, compared to the potential, location, advantages and space of Hai Duong province, the results are still quite modest. Specifically, the investment rate per hectare of industrial land in Hai Duong province is 6.97 million USD, still low compared to the general average and ranked 7th out of 11 in the Red River Delta (currently about 8.09 million USD/ha).

The annual contribution to the state budget of industrial parks is still low. Industrial parks have not yet attracted strategic investors and there are few investors with large brands and reputations in the world, few high-tech investors, and few supporting industry investors.

The purpose is to advise, support, and quickly resolve procedures and projects of investors.

For infrastructure investors, in addition to calculating economic efficiency, they must truly take responsibility to accompany the government in implementing economic development goals and ensuring social security.

As soon as receiving secondary investors, it is necessary to proactively work on a number of issues to coordinate the selection and training of skilled workers: number of workers, required occupations, remuneration... truly being a bridge between the government, workers and employers.

For investors who have not completed site clearance immediately after the decision to assign the investor is made, it is necessary to focus on coordinating with local authorities to have a plan to speed up site clearance progress.

For the industrial parks of Dai An phase 2 expansion, Lai Cach, Kim Thanh, Luong Dien Ngoc Lien, Tan Truong expansion, it is necessary to focus on coordination, remove difficulties and obstacles, and completely resolve site clearance work, to complete before April 30, 2025.
