Binh Duong Chairman Minh expressed his support for CT Group's proposals and committed to working closely with relevant departments and agencies to thoroughly discuss the projects in detail.

He noted Binh Duong's ongoing transformation of several small industrial zones in Di An city into hi-tech hubs, creating a welcoming environment for CT Group's ventures.

Binh Duong wishes to draw more strategic investors, especially in the hi-tech sector, to enhance added value and propel sustainable development, he said, adding that CT Group’s projects align with the local socio-economic development strategy and the province will offer all possible support to them.

Chung of CT Group further expressed his interest in collaborating with local universities and research institutes to develop relevant training courses.
