At the signing ceremony, Texhong Group chairman Hong Tianzhu said the support by the province to foreign investors, particularly Texhong, has made the company more confident of doing business in the province, Viet Nam News reported.

 

Nguyen Van Doc, chairman of the People’s Committee of Quang Ninh, said the province considers Texhong as a strategic investor, and assured all possible support for the Texhong Group to kick start projects in the province.
