VTV.vn - The People’s Committee of central Ha Tinh province has granted investment licences to three new projects worth a combination of more than 1.65 trillion VND (71 million USD).

The projects will be developed at Vung Ang Economic Zone in Ky Anh township, online newspaper baohatinh.vn reported.

They include a timber processing project funded by Ho Chi Minh City-based An Viet Phat Energy Co at a cost of more than 1.28 trillion VND (55 million USD). It will comprise two factories – the first producing lumber and plywood in Ky Thinh ward with an annual capacity of 240,000 tonnes and the second producing compressed wood pellets with an annual capacity of 150,000 tonnes.

Vice Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Duong Tat Thang said he hoped that once operational, these projects would make big contributions to the State budget and create more local jobs.

The central province has set a target of luring 150 projects with total registered capital of about 2.5 billion USD by the end of this year, according to the committee.
