At the conference, representatives of industrial park infrastructure investors presented difficulties and obstacles in the development process. Accordingly, some industrial zones want to soon receive the approval of an increase in construction density in their zones; the issue of traffic connection is not synchronous, so it is necessary to invest from national highways into each industrial park; issues in site clearance work affect infrastructure construction... Vice Chairwoman of the Provincial People's Committee Nguyen Thi Hoang has assigned responsibilities to departments and localities, as well as Dong Nai Industrial Zones Authority based on the request of the industrial park infrastructure investors to respond and offer solutions to help overcome difficulties. ​

Overview of the conference 

The conference also heard Colonel Bui Van Quy, Vice Chairman of Vietnam Seaport Association, Deputy General Director of Saigon Newport Corporation share content related to the integration trend of Vietnam's seaports, digital transformation and green logistics issues. At the same time, his recommendations to localities in connecting infrastructure, seaports, and industrial parks to best exploit available potentials and advantages.

Speaking at the conference, Provincial Party Secretary Nguyen Hong Linh said that the current requirement is that industrial parks must renew themselves, apply digital transformation, and quickly reduce emissions. At that time, secondary investors are also forced to change. The Dong Nai Industrial Zones Authority must review their industrial park system to see what limitations need to be removed to meet higher standards. The province must also support industrial parks in their transformation roadmap because developing green industrial parks, green ports, and green businesses is the goal that Dong Nai is aiming for.
