Currently, Can Tho City is focusing on accelerating the implementation of key transportation projects such as the Chau Doc - Can Tho - Soc Trang expressway project (phase 1); the Can Tho - Ca Mau expressway project; the upgrading and expansion project of National Highway 91 (section from Km0-Km7); and the Western Ring Road project... contributing to the synchronization of the road transport system and increasing regional and inter-regional connectivity. At the same time, Can Tho City has attracted many investors with registered capital projects totaling thousands of billions of VND in various sectors.
Notably, the Aeon Mall Can Tho project, located in Binh Nhut area, Long Hoa ward, Binh Thuy district, has a total investment capital of VND 5,400 billion and is being developed by Hoa Lam Can Tho Investment and Development Joint Stock Company. The project involves the investment, construction, management, operation, and development of a comprehensive shopping mall and related services, including food and beverage services, a children's play area, and the leasing of completed retail spaces, shelves, and sales areas. It also includes the leasing and subleasing of premises, warehouses, halls, and other facilities within the shopping mall. The project has a total construction floor area of approximately 195,073 m² (excluding the two basement levels).

In the energy sector, the O Mon III and IV Thermal Power Plant projects, part of the Block B - O Mon gas-electricity project chain, are invested in by Petrovietnam. The O Mon III Thermal Power Plant project has already completed its feasibility study and submitted it to the Ministry of Industry and Trade for appraisal. Simultaneously, Petrovietnam is closely coordinating with relevant agencies and the Japanese side to arrange funding for the project. For the O Mon IV Thermal Power Plant, the EPC contract for the main plant is currently undergoing the contractor selection process. According to Mr. Nguyen Manh Tuong, Director of the Electricity Project Management Board - Petrovietnam, during the process of receiving and implementing the handover of projects from the Vietnam Electricity Group (EVN), some difficulties and obstacles were encountered.

The Project Management Board recommends that the city remove obstacles and difficulties regarding legal procedures during the project implementation process…
Along with new projects, Can Tho City is striving to restart the investment project to build the Can Tho City Oncology Hospital, a 500-bed facility with the Department of Health as the investor. The project has a total investment of over 1,727 billion VND (of which over 1,393 billion VND is ODA loan from the Government, the remainder is counterpart funding from the city), and construction began in 2017. During implementation, due to the impact of the pandemic and some objective reasons, the project's progress did not meet the set requirements.
