Vietnamese Consul General in Osaka Ngo Trinh Ha highly appreciated Tay Ninh’s efforts to expand cooperation in the Kansai region – where many large Japanese industrial corporations are concentrated. The province’s proactive approach and direct work with the local business community is considered a strategic step, creating a solid foundation for the upcoming period of extensive cooperation.

In the introduction of the province's potential and advantages, Director of the Department of Finance Truong Van Liep emphasized the strategic role of Tay Ninh in the regional economic network: "Tay Ninh has a particularly important position, being the gateway connecting Ho Chi Minh City with the Mekong Delta and a trade hub with Cambodia through 4 international border gates. This is a rare advantage, creating a strong driving force for trade, logistics services and border gate economy."

He added that the province is focusing on developing industrial infrastructure with the goal of forming 59 industrial parks and 82 industrial clusters by 2030, with a total area of more than 21,372 hectares, of which more than 1,000 hectares of clean land are ready to receive projects.

“We always strive to improve our competitiveness index and create an open and transparent investment environment. Tay Ninh is committed to accompanying Japanese enterprises in a spirit of cooperation, responsibility and efficiency,” the Director of the Department of Finance affirmed.

These conditions help the province become a potential destination for investment in production, logistics, trade and supporting industry.
