Cam Ranh, only an hour from Ho Chi Minh City by air, is blessed with beautiful
ports and beaches, Hideo told Japan’s Nikkei newspaper.
He said H.I.S will work with a Vietnamese group to develop a 1.8-billion-USD
resort complex with 5-6 hotels, one or two of which to be built by the Japanese
firm.
The main investor in Vietnam will build a large-scale theme park inside the
complex similar to Huis Ten Bosch Park in Nagasaki prefecture in Japan, he
noted, adding that the Huis Ten Bosch attracts about 3 million visitors and
generates 89.5 million USD in revenue every year.
In many developing countries, rising incomes result in more demand for major
entertainment centres. The project will be a success if there are at least 10
million people living in the neighbourhood, because local residents normally
account for 60 – 70 percent of visitors to such a park, he explained.-

Situated at the gateway to the Northwest, Hoa Binh province has a population of over 900,000, including about 540,000 of working age. It is home to 6,000 businesses and production facilities, providing employment for over 100,000 workers. The remaining workforce is engaged in informal jobs, works in enterprises outside the province, or contributes to agro-forestry-fisheries. Additionally, around 3,000 workers are employed abroad.
The Hoa Binh provincial People's Committee has issued Decision No. 2767/QD-UBND announcing the rankings of departments, agencies, districts and Hoa Binh city in the Public Administration Reform Index (PAR) and the Satisfaction Index of Public Administration Services (SIPAS) in 2024.
The cultivation of Dam Xanh fish (Bangana lemassoni), a unique fish species, has seen remarkable growth in Mai Chau district, thanks to its high economic value and effectiveness. Initially concentrated in Van Mai commune, farming has now extended to four other communes, namely Mai Hich, Mai Ha, Chieng Chau, and Son Thuy. These areas benefit from pristine underground water flowing from mountain crevices, providing ideal conditions for raising this specialty fish.
In 2024, the total state budget revenue of Hoa Binh Province is estimated at approximately VND 6,930 billion, achieving 183% of the Government’s target, 126% of the target assigned by the Provincial People's Council, and 145% compared to the same period last year.
