The PM made the request at a reception in Hanoi on Wednesday for Chairman and CEO Ali Ijaz Ahmad and other senior executives of the Singapore-based group, who are exploring investment opportunities in Vietnam. Mr. Chinh reiterated the Vietnamese Government’s commitment to accompanying and facilitating effective and successful investments by the group in the country.
Makara Capital’s leaders said the group is promoting an investment project to develop a biopharmaceutical industrial park in Hung Yen province. In addition, it is engaging with relevant Vietnamese agencies and localities to collaborate on energy and infrastructure projects, support bank restructuring efforts, and participate in the development of an international financial center in Vietnam. These initiatives could mobilize an estimated total investment of between 5 and 7 billion USD.
