At the 25th session (special session) of the 259th tenure, the People's Council of Quang Ninh province passed Resolution No. 26/NQ-HDND dated February 2, 2025, supplementing the socio-economic development tasks for 2025 with the economic growth target of 14%.
To realize this goal, one of the key solutions stated in the resolution is to develop 2 to 4 new industrial parks (IPs) in the province. The IPs are expected to include: Dong Trieu IP, Van Don Airport North IP, Hai Ha IP (phase 2) and the expansion of Dong Mai IP. According to the provincial planning for the period 2021-2030, with a vision to 2050, the Van Don Airport North IP covers an area of 450 hectares, while Dong Trieu IP covers 178,31 hectares. These will be new driving forces, opening up room for socio-economic development for Quang Ninh and neighboring areas in the coming period.
Currently, the Provincial People's Committee is directing departments, branches and local authorities to review the planned land fund, develop a project list and strategic orientation to attract investors to deploy technical infrastructure for these two industrial parks. If capital is attracted early in 2025, the industrial parks will bring in large non-budget investment resources, contributing to promoting economic growth and creating momentum for investment activities in the following years, especially in the fields of processing, manufacturing, smart industry and semiconductor chips.
In addition, Quang Ninh province is also accelerating the progress of technical infrastructure investment in Dong Mai Industrial Cluster (in Quang Yen Coastal Economic Zone) and Van Don Industrial Cluster (in Van Don Economic Zone), with the goal of putting them into operation in 2025 to attract secondary investors. At Van Don Industrial Cluster, the investor, Phu Thinh Van Don Joint Stock Company, has completed most of the main infrastructure on a planned area of 52 hectares in Doan Ket commune. However, due to problems related to defense land, the technical infrastructure here has not been invested synchronously, affecting the ability to attract investment and increase production output. Relevant parties need to promptly resolve this issue to improve the competitiveness of the industrial cluster, while increasing production value and budget revenue.
In 2025, Quang Ninh identified industrial parks and economic zones (EZs) as the main driving force to attract social resources, especially foreign direct investment (FDI). The Provincial People's Committee has directed relevant units to focus on promoting investment in strong markets in processing, manufacturing, electronics, semiconductors and supporting industries. At the same time, the province will closely monitor market developments, propose flexible solutions to anticipate the trend of shifting supply chains, optimize the occupancy rate of industrial parks and proactively work with strategic investors to attract large-scale FDI projects, apply high technology, and have the ability to quickly disburse according to the direction of Conclusion No. 123-KL/TW dated January 24, 1 of the Central Government.
