TRANSPORT MINISTRY ANNOUNCES EIGHT PPP PROJECTS
Minister of Transport Nguyen Van The has signed a Decision announcing the portfolio of component projects constructing certain segments of the eastern North-South Highway in the 2017-2020 period.
Accordingly, eight projects will be invested in form of Public-Private Partnership (PPP) with the total investment of around VND104,079 billion (the State capital of VND40,362 billion).
These highways include Mai Son (Ninh Binh)-No.45 Highway (Thanh Hoa), No.45 Highway-Nghi Son (Thanh Hoa), Nghi Son-Dien Chau (Nghe An), Dien Chau-Bai Vot(Ha Tinh), Nha Trang-Cam Lam (Khanh Hoa), Cam Lam-Vinh Hao (Binh Thuan), Vinh Hao-Phan Thiet(Binh Thuan) and Phan Thiet-Dau Giay (Dong Nai).
Among these eight projects, the highest-invested highway connecting Phan Thiet-Dau Giay (98 km) is worth VND19,571 billion (the State capital of VND5,551 billion) and the lowest one connecting Nha Trang-Cam Lam (29 km) is valued at VND5,131 billion (the State capital of VND2,532 billion).
These projects will meet the transportation demand at some urgent segments, building the eastern North-South Highway with high capacity, safety, and high speed way.
These projects will connect political-economic centers, especially three major economic zones, economic parks, and industrial parks, contributing to the completion of a synchronous infrastructure system, the promotion of socioeconomic development, ensuring national defense-security, and improving economic competitiveness.
These projects have started preparations since earlier this year and are expected to be finished by 2021.

ASIA POWERS VIETNAM’S SHRIMP BOOM, LEAVING THE WEST BEHIND
In the first half of 2026, Vietnam's shrimp exports surpassed the US$2.3 billion mark, driven largely by booming demand from China and a lobster craze. But behind that growth figure lies a lopsided picture: Asia is carrying the load, while the U.S. and Europe have yet to break out.
