Ha Nam (VNA) – ♏The Republic of Korea-based HTC company had a working session with Ha Nam’s authorities on March 2 concerning the construction of its plant in the northern locality.
According to HTC Director General Lee Chang Bok, Ha Nam has a good investment policy for foreign investors, especially those from the Republic of Korea and Japan. It also has a favourable geographical location and productive trade ties with Hanoi and other neighbouring provinces.
Taking into account these conditions, the company decided to invest in building a plant producing high-quality household articles in the Dong Van I industrial park. The facility will cover 20,000 square metres, costing an estimated initial investment of up to 8 million USD.
Vu Dai Thang, Vice Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee, said his agency will make it easier for HTC to finish relevant administrative procedures.
