  "account": "Vietnamese investors are pursuing a synchronized manufacturing ecosystem to ensure smooth factory operations and bolster confidence in long-term investment plans. Lu Cheng Ming, general director of TVC, highlighted the importance of a stable power supply, underground power cables, and protection equipment to mitigate the risks associated with thunderstorms in Vietnam. The company aims to improve power supply quality by collaborating with the power company and industrial park developer.\n\nForeign investors consider various factors when exploring opportunities, including land hiring costs, infrastructure, investment environment, logistics connectivity, and accompanying services such as electricity supply and wastewater treatment systems. They also pay attention to worker living conditions, including dormitories and housing close to industrial parks.\n\nThe shift towards a high-quality foreign-invested economic sector in Vietnam is driven by Resolution No.10-NQ/TW, which emphasizes the need for synchronized and unified development of the foreign investment ecosystem. This includes the development of high-tech industrial parks, innovation centres, logistics infrastructure, data systems, and energy resources.\n\nIndustrial park developers are continuously enhancing production infrastructure, such as electricity, water supply, drainage, wastewater treatment, telecommunications, and digital infrastructure systems. In addition, they are interested in integrating logistics directly into the ecosystem, which can reduce transportation costs and create opportunities for small-scale businesses. Green standards and ESG criteria are becoming increasingly important factors for corporations investing in industries like semiconductors, data centres, or renewable energy.",
  "summary": "Instead of focusing only on land costs and incentives as usual foreign investors are seeking a synchronised manufacturing ecosystem from stable power supply and logistics to shared infrastructure and the convenience of completing residence procedures for experts to serve their long term investment in the country",
