Quang Tri approves Korean factory land lease
Quang Tri authorities have approved a 19,721-square-meter land lease to South Korea-backed Sangshin Central Vietnam to develop an electronic parts manufacturing facility in the central province, the firm's second project in the country.

The first phase of the project is slated to commence operations in January 2023, while the second phase will be put into operation two years later. Once complete, the project will have an annual output of 4.8 million noise filters, 27 million inductors, and 82 million molded plastic components for both phases.
