Once expected to become Silicon Valley, however, the Da Nang concentrated information technology park is now in a state of disrepair, overgrown with grass, and many roads have even become places for cows to graze.

Located in Hoa Lien commune (Hoa Vang district, Da Nang city), Da Nang concentrated information technology park is invested by Da Nang Information Technology Park Development Joint Stock Company.

The project was expected to develop following the model of America's Silicon Valley, and become one of the best information technology development communities in Asia in Da Nang.

The project has a total area of 341 hectares, with a total investment of VND 2,744 billion. Of which, phase 1 is 131 hectares (completed and ready to serve investors), phase 2 is 210 hectares, expected to be built within 5 years (from 2020 - 2025).

However, according to the reporter's records, the concentrated information technology park in Da Nang is currently quite deserted and desolate.

Some of the project's roads have become grazing grounds for cows, overgrown with weeds.

The investor also builds a specialist area in addition to investing in, constructing and operating synchronous technical infrastructure.

However, the villas built to accommodate experts are unfinished and overgrown with grass.

Infrastructure such as parks and sports fields at the project were also built but also fell into a state of abandonment.

Some projects are under construction, and construction machinery is also "shelved".

Some items of the project have fallen into disrepair and show signs of deterioration.

According to research, phase 2 of the Da Nang IT park project is also facing problems and the "scope" to solve them is not within the locality's control.

Da Nang has proposed that the central government consider and agree to allow the city to continue implementing related procedures based on the project's existing legal basis (issued investment certificate) on the basis of reviewing financial obligations to ensure no loss of state budget revenue.
