According to the Quang Ninh Provincial Planning for the period 2021-2030, with a vision to 2050, approved by the Prime Minister in Decision No. 80/QD-TTg dated February 11, 2, the province aims to build 2023 economic zones (EZs), 5 industrial parks (IPs) and 23 industrial clusters (ICs). In addition to exploiting the potential of existing EZs and IPs, in 45, Quang Ninh is determined to expand from 2025 to 2 new IPs to promote sustainable economic growth in the short and long term.
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, adding the task of socio-economic development with the economic growth target of 14%. One of the key solutions is to deploy 2 to 4 new industrial parks, including Dong Trieu Industrial Park, Industrial Park North of Van Don Airport, Hai Ha Industrial Park (phase 2) and expanding Dong Mai Industrial Park.
Of these, Hai Ha and Dong Mai Industrial Parks have been invested in and are proposing to expand their scale, while Dong Trieu Industrial Park (178,31 ha) and the Industrial Park north of Van Don airport (450 ha) are two completely new projects according to the 2021-2030 planning, with a vision to 2050. These two industrial parks are expected to create a driving force for socio-economic development not only for Quang Ninh but also for neighboring areas.
To realize the plan, the Provincial People's Committee is directing departments, branches and localities to review the planned land fund, create a list of projects and orient to attract investment in technical infrastructure for the two new industrial parks. If investors are called for early in 2025, Quang Ninh will mobilize large non-budgetary capital, contributing significantly to economic growth this year and creating momentum to attract investment in the fields of processing, manufacturing, smart industry and semiconductor chips in the following years.
At the same time, the province is also accelerating the completion of infrastructure at Dong Mai Industrial Park (in Quang Yen coastal economic zone) and Van Don Industrial Park (in Van Don economic zone) to put them into operation in 2025, ready to welcome secondary investors. At Van Don Industrial Park, Phu Thinh Van Don Joint Stock Company has completed most of the main infrastructure on an area of 52 hectares in Doan Ket commune. However, due to problems related to national defense land, infrastructure investment is not synchronous, affecting the ability to attract investment and increase production output. The province is asking relevant parties to coordinate to thoroughly resolve the issue to improve the competitiveness of the industrial park, while increasing production value and budget revenue.
In 2025, Quang Ninh identified industrial parks and economic zones as the highlight to attract social resources, especially FDI capital. The Provincial People's Committee directed to focus on promoting investment in strong markets in processing, electronics, semiconductor and supporting industries; at the same time, closely monitor market trends to anticipate the wave of supply chain shifts, optimizing the occupancy rate of industrial parks. The province also proactively approached strategic investors to call for large, high-tech FDI projects with quick disbursement in accordance with the direction of Conclusion No. 123-KL/TW dated January 24, 1 of the Central Government.
In particular, the province has accelerated the progress of site clearance, land allocation and land lease in industrial parks according to the motto of completing site clearance and land allocation. Infrastructure investors are required to urgently level the ground, ensure clean land funds to meet investment needs, and increase the occupancy rate of industrial parks in the coming time.
