Ho Chi Minh City prepares to invest in a 10.6-hectare chemical center in Binh Chanh

The Management Board of Ho Chi Minh City Export Processing and Industrial Zones (Hepza) has just issued Document No. 1587/BQL-DT to the Department of Industry and Trade of Ho Chi Minh City regarding speeding up the implementation of the Central Warehouse for Trading Flavors and Chemicals at Le Minh Xuan 3 Industrial Park, Binh Chanh District.

The construction of a Center for the trading of flavors and chemicals will help manage the purchase and sale of chemicals better. In the photo is Kim Bien market, District 5, where chemicals are traded in the heart of Ho Chi Minh City.

According to the content of Hepza's document, through meetings in September 2022 and the latest meeting on June 5, 2024 between the Department of Industry and Trade with Hepza and Saigon VRG Investment Joint Stock Company (Saigon VRG Company) agreed on the policy of reserving a part of the land fund in Le Minh Xuan 3 Industrial Park to invest in the City's flavor and chemical business center.

However, the implementation so far has not been on schedule as agreed because according to the report of Saigon VRG Company, the company does not have official statistics on the number of enterprises, industries, scale, area, etc.

This affects the project establishment process and the construction of warehouses to serve the needs as per the Project of the Department of Industry and Trade.

In order not to affect the progress of the project because it is very urgent, Hepza requested the Department of Industry and Trade to support Saigon VRG Company in collecting statistics on the number of relocated enterprises, types of chemicals, scale, area, etc. to develop plans and proceed with investment in factory construction.

It is expected that the time to complete procedures and complete construction works to put them into operation will be about 18 months (in case the 1/2000 planning of Le Minh Xuan 3 Industrial Park does not need to be adjusted).

In case the implementation progress is not as agreed, Hepza will reserve this 10.6 ha area to attract investment projects in other priority industries.

Previously, in 2016, the Ho Chi Minh City People's Committee agreed in principle to allow the implementation of a flavor and chemical trading center on a 11.2-hectare plot of land in Ward 7, District 8. However, up to now, the implementation has encountered many difficulties and is not feasible.

Therefore, the Department of Industry and Trade, Hepza and Saigon VRG Investment Joint Stock Company have agreed to propose the Ho Chi Minh City People's Committee to approve the policy of selecting Lot G (G1-G5) Area A, Le Minh Xuan 3 Industrial Park with an area of ​​10.6 hectares to invest in a flavor and chemical business center.

The investment in a centralized chemical and flavoring trading center aims to solve the problem of trading and storing dangerous chemicals that cause unsafety in residential areas; control food safety and hygiene issues and fire and explosion prevention and control.

Mr. Dung emphasized that this is a key project and needs to be given top priority to drastically remove obstacles in implementation. The project progress is currently at 70%, but there is still a lot of work to do.

“Local leaders and units must give strong direction in site clearance work to remove obstacles. When it is necessary to rush, we must protect the construction and enforce construction in case of delay. For the provincial sectors, we request that they be extremely responsible when discussing the National Highway 14E project, avoiding the situation of pushing back and forth,” Mr. Dung emphasized.

At the same time, investors need to closely coordinate with localities, departments and branches to find ways to handle arising problems, speed up construction progress, and pay attention to ensuring traffic safety and people's lives in the project area...

Tan Son Nhat Airport Terminal 3 has completed the rough construction and will be put into operation on April 30, 2025.

On June 19, Airports Corporation of Vietnam (ACV) informed about the construction progress of Terminal T3 Project, Tan Son Nhat International Airport.

Contractors are installing steel frame structures for the roof of Terminal T3, Tan Son Nhat Airport - Photo: Le Minh

Mr. Le Khac Hong, Head of the T3 Terminal Construction Project Management Board, said that the overall progress of the project has reached about 60%. Of which, the rough construction of the passenger terminal was completed 15 days ahead of schedule.

For the parking garage (2 basements, 4 floors above ground), the progress is 96%, expected to be completed on June 30, 2024. Some other items such as the electrical and mechanical building and the wastewater treatment plant have been completed.

Currently, the contractor is assembling the steel frame structure, glass walls and roofing the station. This is the key part of the project, carried out in a rolling manner, where the steel structure is assembled and the roof and glass walls are installed to ensure the completion of the work and installation of indoor equipment.

In the fourth quarter of 2024, the main equipment in the station will be installed to complete and put into operation on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the complete Liberation of the South and National Reunification (April 30, 1975 - April 30, 2025).

Although the project progress is still guaranteed, Mr. Le Khac Hong said that the biggest difficulty in the project construction is the narrow construction site and lack of public roads. "Sometimes the contractor has to use the land inside the station to build public roads to transport materials. Because one item must be completed before another item can be built, the project cannot be carried out simultaneously," Mr. Hong stated the difficulty.

The project to build passenger terminal T3, Tan Son Nhat International Airport includes 4 main items: passenger terminal; high-rise parking garage combined with non-aviation services; overpass system in front of the terminal and aircraft parking lot with a total investment of 10,990 billion VND.

The project is built with equity capital of Vietnam Airports Corporation (ACV) and commercial loans.

After completion, Terminal T3 will accommodate 7,000 passengers per peak hour, reducing the load on Terminal T1 and solving congestion at Tan Son Nhat Airport.

Accordingly, the current proposal of the two projects of 5-star hotel, Co Dau park housing and Trung Chi lake mixed housing area by the investor is not consistent with the land use planning until 2030 of Dong Ha city and is not consistent with the Dong Luong ward zoning plan approved in 2014, Ward 5 zoning plan approved in 2013.

Regarding the Gio Linh Resort, Entertainment and Urban Sea Complex - Phase 1 and the Urban Service Tourism Complex, Golf Course in Trung Giang Commune, through comparison with the map provided by the investor, the two projects are overlapping with the mineral exploration and exploitation planning approved by competent authorities.

Speaking at the meeting, Chairman of Quang Tri Provincial People's Committee Vo Van Hung hoped that the Newtechco Investor Consortium would actively coordinate with the provincial departments, branches and sectors to remove obstacles and soon have specific proposals for each project so that the province has a basis to consider granting investment policies.
