The municipal People’s Council on Friday approved a draft resolution outlining the procedures for establishing, expanding, and adjusting the boundaries of the FTZ.
A single FTZ will be set up at Cai Mep Ha, covering roughly 3,800 hectares. This area is designated as the core zone and must be closely linked to a deep-water seaport, in order to maximize the advantages of the Cai Mep-Thi Vai port cluster along the Asia-Europe and Asia-America international shipping routes.
From the core zone, functional subzones will be developed in areas with specific advantages in logistics, port infrastructure, and transport connectivity.
