Long An – Long An Province will direct relevant agencies to remove bottlenecks for businesses, including those from Taiwan, Trần Văn Cần, Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee said at a dialogue with Taiwanese enterprises last week.
During the meeting, a representative from Tainan Enterprises Co Ltd, a garment manufacturer in Kiến Tường town’s border economic zone, expressed concerns over complicated and time-consuming administrative procedures for foreign workers.
A Wu Feng Việt Nam representative said her company was yet to occupy the entire area it had leased at the zone and asked for help from local authorities. The company makes bathroom products at the Hoàng Gia Industrial Complex in Đức Hòa District.
Taiwan is taking the lead among 37 countries and territories investing in Long An, with 180 projects worth over US$980 million, mostly in outsourcing, garment and footwear, and plastics. -VNS
