Tuan Chau, Vingroup to develop luxury resorts in Can Gio
Tuesday, February 21,2017AsemconnectVietnam - Tuan Chau Group and Vingroup are proceeding with projects to develop coastal luxury resorts in Can Gio District, which the HCMC government expects to boost the development of resort tourism in the city’s outlying coastal district.
Dung told the Daily that Tuan Chau’s resort is planned to go up next to the resort of Vingroup.
Can Gio District has been told to revise the zoning plan for the entire coastal area of the district, Dung said. He added the Government previously gave ‘in principle’ approval to the resort on 600 hectares but the investor now wanted the area to increase to 1,000 hectares.
In addition to new tourism projects, the city government will help Can Gio District diversify tourism products and make the most of its potential related to seafood and tours to its mangrove forests, island of monkeys, and places to produce swallow nests, HCMC vice chairman Tran Vinh Tuyen said.
Tuyen said the city government had thrown its weight behind Can Gio District’s effort to develop more tourism products during his field trip to the district last Saturday.
Tuyen told reporters during his field trip that the city would create favorable conditions for Can Gio to boost tourism by organizing free-of-charge services for tourists to travel from the center of the city to the district, investing more in infrastructure development and calling for businesses to build more rest stops in the district.
“Can Gio’s potential and natural advantages are huge and they should be developed to turn the district into an appealing destination for not only domestic tourists but also those from abroad,” Tuyen said.
In November 2016, HCMC proposed the Ministry of Planning and Investment seek the Prime Minister’s nod to add a 36-hole golf course covering 135 hectares in Can Gio to the national zoning plan for golf course development until 2020. The Can Gio Golf Club project planned by Can Gio Tourism Urban Area Joint Stock Company under Vingroup costs around VND900 billion (US$39.6 million), excluding site clearance cost and loan interest.
Can Gio is in southeastern HCMC and 60 kilometers from the city’s downtown area. The district is crisscrossed by canals and rivers and home to mangrove forests which were recognized as a world biosphere reserve by UNESCO in 2000.
Can Gio, which has a coastline of more than 13 kilometers, attracted one million visitors and gained tourism revenue of VND400 billion (around US$17.6 million) last year. It targets more than one million tourists this year.
