industrial and handicraft production hit 2.85 trillion VND, up 25.8 percent
year-on-year. The city is also preparing the conditions to start construction

for other industrial zones and clusters to attract investment. Local budget
revenue is estimated at 627.83 billion VND, equal to 63.4 percent of the target
