Yen Bai continues to focus on developing Industrial Parks

CTTĐT - After 20 years of investing in developing industrial parks, the occupancy rate of Yen Bai province's industrial parks has reached 90%. It is expected that by 2030, Yen Bai province will plan to expand 2 industrial parks and plan 4 new industrial parks. Developing industrial parks is the driving force to help other economic sectors develop, contributing positively to the shift in the local labor structure.

The occupancy rate of industrial parks in Yen Bai province reached 90%.

In 2005, Yen Bai province established the Southern Industrial Park as the first industrial park of the province. Up to now, the province has approved the construction plan of 4 industrial parks in the national industrial park system with a total land area of 882.39 hectares, of which: 3 industrial parks have been put into operation with technical infrastructure investment capital from the state budget including: Au Lau Industrial Park, Minh Quan Industrial Park and Southern Industrial Park.

Up to now, 92 projects in the industrial parks have been granted investment approval decisions, with a total investment capital of VND 15,003 billion and a total registered land area of 404.11 hectares. The average occupancy rate in the industrial parks is 90%. 43 projects have been put into operation, creating jobs for about 4,500 workers with an average salary of VND 6.5 million/person/month.

The industrial zones have an estimated annual industrial production value of over 7,650 billion VND, and an estimated export value of over 170 million USD. 606.5 billion VND has been mobilized from the state budget to gradually invest in technical infrastructure works in the industrial zones according to the plan. Every year, the industrial zones contribute about 90 billion VND to the state budget;

The actual operation of industrial parks shows that some projects are still slow to implement, have not met the committed progress, and have not fully implemented the regulations in the Decision on approval of investment policy/Investment registration certificate. Many investors have the need to come to learn about investing in factories in industrial parks in the province; however, the 3 industrial parks that have been put into operation so far have basically been filled up, so there is no land area to introduce to investors to implement the project. In addition, the compensation for site clearance is still slow, affecting the investment progress of infrastructure works in industrial parks and the project implementation progress of investors. In some industrial parks, the centralized wastewater treatment system has not been completed...

In order to continue attracting investors to the industrial parks and helping businesses expand their production scale, from now until 2030, Yen Bai province plans to expand Minh Quan Industrial Park and Tran Yen Industrial Park; carry out new planning for 4 more industrial parks with a total new planning area of 1,025 hectares including: Y Can Industrial Park, Dong An Industrial Park, Thinh Hung Industrial Park and Luc Yen Industrial Park.

According to Mr. Trinh Huynh Yen - Head of the Industrial Park Management Board of Yen Bai province: In order to promptly overcome existing limitations, the Board will continue to closely coordinate with relevant departments and branches, especially local authorities, in accelerating the implementation progress of investment projects in industrial parks right after the project is granted an investment policy decision to support investors in carrying out the work of surveying and mapping land acquisition. At the same time, promptly propose solutions to remove and resolve difficulties for projects, especially for long-standing problems that have not been completely resolved. Actively support investors in completing procedures for reforestation, conversion of land use purposes of production forests, rice fields and procedures on construction, environment, fire prevention and fighting..."

In addition, the province will also focus on accelerating the construction of infrastructure works in industrial parks based on the capital from the state budget allocated annually; Promote the work of attracting investors to build and operate infrastructure to invest in infrastructure for industrial parks expected to be newly established by 2030, including: Y Can Industrial Park; Dong An Industrial Park; Thinh Hung Industrial Park; Luc Yen Industrial Park, in order to have more land funds for secondary investors to implement projects in industrial parks, create more jobs for workers, increase budget revenue, and contribute to the socio-economic development of the locality.

Continue to propagate and raise awareness of enterprises in complying with legal regulations when investing and doing business in industrial zones; guide and support investors to complete legal procedures to ensure compliance with legal regulations. Strengthen review and inspection, and be more determined in handling enterprises that violate legal regulations during the investment and business process in industrial zones.
