Deputy Secretary of the Quang Ninh Provincial Party Committee and Chairman of the Quang Ninh Provincial People’s Committee Bui Van Khang on May 19 had a meeting with representatives of Amata Corporation (Thailand) and Marubeni Corporation (Japan) to discuss plans for expanding investment activities in the province in the coming period.
Currently, Amata is the developer of the infrastructure project for Song Khoai Industrial Park, one of the province’s key industrial parks. To date, Song Khoai Industrial Park has attracted 25 secondary investment projects, all of which are FDI projects, with total registered capital standing at nearly $3 billion. The projects are mainly concentrated in the processing and manufacturing industries, featuring high technological content and added value, and involving major international corporations and enterprises such as Autoliv, Jinko Solar, Foxconn, Lite-On, Yaskawa, Tamagawa...
At the meeting, leaders of Amata and Marubeni shared updates on their strategic partnership, under which Marubeni has completed procedures to become an official shareholder of Amata Ha Long with a 20 per cent ownership stake. Marubeni’s participation is expected to strengthen the financial capacity of the Song Khoai Industrial Park infrastructure project, enhance governance standards in line with international practices, and expand networks to attract more Japanese technology corporations to invest in the industrial park in the future.
Notably, leaders of the two groups also proposed expanding Uong Bi Industrial Park and the western area of Song Khoai Industrial Park. This move is considered an important step toward increasing the province’s attractiveness to international investors while promoting high-quality FDI inflows into Quang Ninh, thereby driving economic growth, industrial restructuring, and job creation for local workers.
According to data from the Foreign Investment Agency (FIA) under the Ministry of Finance (MoF), as of the end of April 2026, foreign investors had poured more than $15.31 billion into 252 projects in Quang Ninh. The province currently ranks 10th nationwide in attracting foreign direct investment (FDI).
Speaking at the meeting, Chairman of the Quang Ninh Provincial People’s Committee Bui Van Khang acknowledged and highly appreciated Amata’s contributions to Quang Ninh’s socio-economic development, particularly in investment attraction, job creation, and ensuring social welfare for local residents.
Therefore, Mr. Khang urged Amata and Marubeni to continue coordinating closely with local authorities in compensation and site clearance work, while concentrating resources on accelerating investment progress and completing the technical infrastructure of Song Khoai Industrial Park in line with the approved schedule.
At the same time, Amata and Marubeni were also encouraged to further strengthen investment promotion efforts to attract more high-quality secondary investment projects to the industrial park in the coming period.
In addition, the provincial leader called on the two investors to study and develop accommodation facilities, social infrastructure, and other utilities for employees to meet the growing development needs of Song Khoai Industrial Park and the secondary projects currently being implemented or planned in the area.
