So far, there are nearly 1400 active projects in the Mekong Delta with a total registered capital of nearly 21 billion US dollars. Long An is leading in terms of the number of projects and value of investments, followed by Kiên Giang and Trà Vinh.
According to enterprises, despite having improved the attractiveness of their investments, the infrastructure for agriculture in the Mekong Delta is still underdeveloped. Foreign direct investment has been focusing more on provinces near Ho Chi Minh City and coastal provinces that have advantages in tourism and energy development.
