Lots of potential

Dong Nai is located in the center of the Southeast Economic Region in particular and the Southern Key Economic Zone in general. Therefore, the province has many advantages in economic and social development, including urban development.

Deputy Minister of Planning and Investment Tran Duy Dong said that through research on provinces in the Southeast region, Dong Nai is the province with the highest urbanization rate. In terms of population size, by 2025, the province's population is expected to reach about 4 million people, and the province's urbanization rate will also reach 60%.

In addition to the advantage of geographical location, the driving force for urban development of Dong Nai in the coming time is also "energised" by large infrastructure projects being implemented in the province.

Long Thanh International Airport phase 1 with a capacity of serving about 25 million passengers/year is expected to be completed and put into operation in 2025. With the position of a "super" airport, Long Thanh airport is expected to create new impetus to promote the province's economic and social development, including urban development.

Along with Long Thanh airport, a series of other key national infrastructure projects are also being implemented and will be implemented in the province such as highways Phan Thiet - Dau Giay, Ben Luc - Long Thanh, Bien Hoa - Vung Tau, Ring Road 3 – HCM city.

In fact, transport infrastructure projects not only play a role in connecting traffic, opening up opportunities for economic sectors to develop, but these projects will also contribute to expanding development spaces in the region. There is space for urban development. Therefore, to take advantage of the above opportunities, Dong Nai is also focusing on the development of urban areas in the province.
