Chan May-Lang Co Economic Zone in central Thua Thien Hue province has so far attracted 25 projects undertaken by 19 local and foreign investors with total registered capital of VND280 million

The zone now has many facilities to attract investors, such as a new 130-metre wharf in Chan May seaport, which is passable to ships with load capacity up to 5,000 tonnes, and Lang Co beach which is very beautiful and easily accessible from the newly-opened Hai Van tunnel.

It is expected that 14 of the above projects will be carried out in 2006, with total capital of US$ 155 million.

Those projects include the VND65 billion Huong Giang tourism site, the Green Village tourism project and the Trade Union's tourism project. The biggest project is an US$80 million resort invested by the Ho Chi Minh City-based Phong Phu Textile Company in an area of 130 hectares.
