Widening international relations
According to economists, many potential investors invest into Quang Nam thanks to the province’s dynamic feature in applying mechanism and policy in order to mobilize all the resources for a competitive and healthy investment climate. The results in 2015 are the strong foundations of Quang Nam’s sustainable and fast growth in the ASEAN (Association of Southeast Asian Nations) Community and other free trade agreements. Quang Nam province will create the most favourable conditions for FDI businesses, international organizations to operate effectively in the province. According to Chairman of Quang Nam People’s Committee Dinh Van Thu, the Quang Nam authorities usually appreciate the role of international friends in the province’s successfully eco-social development. Therefore, Quang Nam province hopes the diplomatic representative offices, international governmental and non-governmental organizations to continue helping the province in widening international relations, approaching to the ODA sources, as well as calling for investment. At the same time, the effectiveness of the ongoing projects and programmes have to be improved to contribute to the province’s eco-social development.
