So far this year, south-western Tay Ninh province has attracted 7 new projects to industrial zones worth US$27 million, triple when compared to the same period last year.

However, due to slow development of infrastructure for transport, electricity and water supplies, investors face difficulties in expanding their operation.

Tran Thanh Hong, deputy Director General of the Construction and Investment Company in Linh Trung Export Processing Zone said to attract more investors the province should speed up the development of infrastructure, especially the drainage and transport.
