Bạc Liêu Provincial People's Committee Chairman, Mr. Phạm Văn Thiều, emphasized that the province prioritizes selective investment attraction, focusing on large-scale projects and financially strong enterprises. At the same time, medium and small-scale projects that align with local potential will also be facilitated.

He assured that the provincial government will accompany businesses to create a favorable investment environment under the principles of "no unofficial costs" and "easy matters for businesses, difficult matters will be handled by the government".

Strengthening Transport Infrastructure

To create favorable conditions for investors, Bạc Liêu has proposed and secured approval for several major transportation infrastructure projects, including:
