Chau highlighted the province’s proximity to Hanoi's Noi Bai International Airport, its modern port system and uniform socio-economic infrastructure among its strengths, adding the locality holds huge potential in the machine installation industry, and high-tech agro-forestry production.
Furthermore, Phu Tho province is also at an advantage to develop resort tourism as it boasts gorgeous landscapes and owns two heritage items recognised by the UNESCO as Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, namely the worship of Hung Kings and xoan folk singing, he said.
Phu Tho is now home to seven Japanese investments with total registered capital amounting to some 34 million USD.
Invested at a total cost of 25 million USD by Matsuoka Phu Tho Company Limited under Matsuoka Corporation, the garment factory complex in Phu Ha industrial park is the largest FDI project from Japan. It creates jobs for more than 2,000 local labourers.
