Proposals to make the city best place to live and invest

Prior to the ‘Talk of Spring 2019’ programme, which is scheduled to take place on Friday, 1 March, DA NANG Newspaper’s reporter Khanh Hoa has recorded opinions and expectations of some businesspeople, and representatives of concerned associations across the city. The 1-day event aims to offer an opportunity for the city leaders to collect constructive ideas and recommendations from representatives from business associations, and enterprises to accelerate the city’s sustainable development during this year, and in the years ahead. Mr Nguyen Tien Quang, the Director of the city’s branch of the Viet Nam Chamber of Commerce and Industry (VCCI), underlined a must-do to realise the Politburo’s new resolution on the city’s development for 2030 with a vision toward 2045. He hoped that the city would continue to welcome healthy investment and say ‘no’ to speculative activities. This is also a good way to ensure a fair, transparent, and healthy investment and business environment, thereby satisfying the aspirations of true investors with good capacity, high sense of responsibility and great sustainable growth potential. In his suggestion, Mr Le Tri Hai, the CEO of the city-based Toan Cau Xanh company (Green Global) cum Vice Chairman of the municipal Young Entrepreneurs’ Association, proposed that the city promote start-up and brand name building movements. In the coming time, special heed should be paid to adopting even more support policies to for young enterprises to enable them develop their national brands, as well as facilitating them to easily access such highly meaningful policies. In his point of view, Mr Le Minh Phuc, the General Director of VinaCapital Da Nang cum Deputy Head of the Da Nang FDI Businesses’ Club, underlined a necessity to accelerate the handling of such important investment procedures as environmental impact assessment, investment certificates, construction permits, and the permitted height of projects. Also, he affirmed a need to build a professional, well-trained and proficient team of lawyers who are in charge of giving suggestions and consultancies to the city administration on legal issues, hereby making sure that investors comply with the laws and ensure the legality of their projects. Mr Dang Ngoc Hai, the Director of the Da Nang branch of the Axon Active Viet Nam Company, recommended that the city meet the real demand for premises amongst domestic and foreign businesses operating in the city so that the allocation of land for them will be conducted in an even more effective manner, in the current context of more and more start-up investors doing business in the city. He pointed out to the fact that, despite their relatively high professional skills, IT employees now still lack career orientations, soft skills, initiatives, and the ability to self-study and access new technologies. As a result, these limitations have adversely affected the competitiveness of IT human resources. This issue of concern, therefore, should be resolved. Mr Pham Bac Binh, the Director of Binh Vinh Corporation, cum  the Chairman of the city’s Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) Association hoped that land-related issues will be resolved thoroughly this year in a prompt yet effective fashion. In reality, many businesses have raised their concern over matters on land lease fees and the protection of long-term land lease rights. He also highly appreciated the significant event for the business community in raising some issues of most concern to them needing to be resolved, being fully aware of their obligations to the community. Furthermore, this event, offers an opportunity for them to meet and exchange with domestic and foreign investors about production and business activities, and seek future cooperation opportunities.
