However, according to the report of the Investment Promotion and Support Center, compared to the progress requirements for resolving related problems assigned at the previous meeting (June 28, 2018), there are still some problems that have not been resolved promptly (such as some procedures at projects of Vingroup Corporation, FLC Group, Vissai Group,...).
Specifically: The representative of FLC Group in Nghe An said that the Group is currently surveying and investing in a number of projects in Nghe An such as: FLC Nghe An Ecological Resort and Entertainment Complex Project in Nghi Tien Commune, Nghi Loc District; Investment project to explore and exploit limestone mines for common construction materials in Tan Ky District; FLC - Tan Ky High-Tech Agriculture Project, Nghe An.

As for the FLC Nghe An Eco-tourism and Entertainment Resort Complex project in Nghi Tien commune, because it is located in the Southeast Economic Zone, the project implementation area has some contents in the general planning of the Southeast Economic Zone that must be submitted for the Prime Minister's opinion, so the time to resolve the procedures is prolonged.
Regarding the investment project to explore and exploit limestone mines for common construction materials in Tan Ky district, the Provincial People's Committee has issued Document No. 3039/UBND-NN dated May 8, 2018 to the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development regarding the proposal to change the purpose of using natural forest land. Currently, the investor and the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development are working to seek opinions from the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development. However, the conversion of forest land is under the authority of the Prime Minister and the proposed area has not been included in the construction materials planning area. The time to seek opinions from ministries and branches for appraisal is long, so this project is still stuck in procedures.

The project to renovate area B, Quang Trung Apartment Complex, Vinh City is also a key project of Nghe An invested by Vingroup. Up to now, the investor has sent the compensation and site clearance policy framework to the ward and the stages are being carried out carefully, ensuring the rights of the people. Regarding site clearance, this project is expected to complete the temporary relocation of all 428 households and related procedures in the first quarter of 2019.
Regarding the renovation project of Quang Trung Area B, Mr. Le Sy Chien - Vice Chairman of Vinh City People's Committee, is concerned that there are currently 42 households that need to be cleared and may be passive in the process of site clearance.
Song Lam Cement Joint Stock Company's projects are also stuck with unresolved issues, especially the second phase of site clearance. The MDF Nghe An project is currently stuck with power lines and access roads.
As for the VSIP Nghe An Industrial and Urban Area project, as of September 2018, 16 customers have signed investment commitments (including 5 FDI customers) with a total expected investment capital of more than 1,200 billion VND. VSIP representatives said that site clearance work is still slow to be resolved, such as at the following locations: Nam Phuc Hoa Hamlet Stadium and Hung Tay Commune Stadium; regarding 37 residential land lots, and land mines for site leveling.
At the meeting, Mr. Le Ngoc Hoa - Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee added: Currently, many projects in the Southeast Economic Zone have been approved by the Provincial People's Committee in accordance with the provisions of the Investment Law 2014, but have not yet implemented land lease procedures according to the Land Law 2013. The reason is due to the overlap between the Land Law 2013 and the Investment Law 2014. Therefore, the Provincial People's Committee requested the Provincial National Assembly Delegation to consult with the National Assembly Standing Committee to submit to the National Assembly to amend the Land Law and the Investment Law accordingly. The Provincial People's Committee also requested relevant departments, branches and People's Committees of districts, cities and towns to report to the Standing Committee of the Party Committee to direct the focus on resolving procedures and handling obstacles and difficulties for the projects in a timely manner.
At the meeting, 7 investors also raised current issues that need to be resolved, through which the sectors also answered the progress of work and the requirements of investors. In general, the main problems are due to laws, investment procedures, and electricity.

Concluding the meeting, Provincial Party Secretary Nguyen Dac Vinh highly appreciated the role and responsibility of investors in implementing the projects.
The Provincial Party Secretary suggested directions for specific projects. For the VSIP Industrial Park and Urban Area project, the proactive progress of phase 2 requires continuing to work with residential areas and localities for site clearance. For projects that are stuck in site clearance, localities need to follow the correct procedures and policies, ensure fairness, and strengthen public mobilization. Regarding the FLC project, which is stuck in procedures due to conflicts between the Land Law and the Public Investment Law, it is still necessary to follow the correct procedures. At the same time, the sectors should follow the ministries to urge and speed up the procedures. For the project of Vingroup Corporation, it is necessary to soon implement the Cua Hoi Amusement Park project.
The Provincial Party Secretary also noted that regarding urban areas in the area, it is recommended to adhere to the Vinh city planning until 2030, taking into account the year 2050, and the Vinh - Cua Lo boulevard planning to implement other planning.
After this meeting, the province will have specific notices on directions for resolving specific projects if there are any problems.
