The two projects are the Dai Phuoc River Tourism Urban Area; and the Phong Phu Riverside Tourism Urban Area, both located in Dai Phuoc commune, Nhon Trach district.
According to the provincial Department of Planning and Investment, the consortium comprising Phong Phu Investment JSC, Thanh Loi Construction Investment and Trading Co., Ltd, HB Grand Land JSC, and An Phu Real Estate Investment and Trading JSC is the only one to apply for the Phong Phu Riverside project.
This project, spanning approximately 75.47 hectares, has a total investment of nearly VND7.78 trillion ($316.2 million), including VND7.07 trillion for technical infrastructure and over VND710 billion for compensation and land clearance
