Vietnam has planned to transform the Chan May-Lang Co economic zone in
central Thua Thien Hue province into a modern international deep-water port hub
by 2025, the local newspaper Vietnam News reported today. Under the plan
approved by Vietnamese Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung, the 370-hectare Chan May
deep-water port will serve as an important transit point for deliver goods in
the central economic region of Vietnam, and further boosting business between
Vietnam and foreign traders. Chan May's commercial and financial services
area and a non- tariff area providing a post-port and hi-tech industrial service
will be included in the plan. An additional 4,570 hectare will be set aside
for developing high-quality ecological tourist and service area. Trade, health,
sports, shopping and vocational training centres will also be built in the
economic zone. The Chan May- Lang Co economic zone of Vietnam has long been
served as a gateway to the East Sea.
