Government Inspectorate urged to probe giant pulp project
Deputy Prime Minister Truong Hoa Binh has urged the Government Inspectorate to investigate a giant pulp project in Nghe An Province which has been left idle for years.
Tan Hong pulp plant at Con Cuong District has a total investment of VND1.25 trillion (USD545.4 million). The plant’s production lines were imported from China and would have an annual capacity of 45,000 tonnes.
The planning for the plant’s material zone was approved in 2009 and was built in 2010.
In the 2011-2012 period, due to the production and business difficulties, the plant stopped buying material from local people.
After being left idle for seven years, the Nghe An Department of Planning and Investment has asked the provincial people’s committee to stop the operation of the plant.
Deputy Prime Minister Truong Hoa Binh has called on the Government Inspectorate to probe the case to report the government before May 25.
