The Ministry of Construction has advocated the southern province of Kien Giang’s proposal to put a major plan to turn Phu Quoc Island into a special economic zone (SEZ) on hold.

According to the ministry, the development of Phu Quoc into an SEZ is not appropriate at present and is not in line with the prevailing regulations on planning.

The ministry has also asked the province to work out a new general planning for Phu Quoc in line with the government’s instruction issued last year. 

In the proposal sent to the Ministry of Construction, the Kien Giang People’s Committee said that the Phu Quoc SEZ has not yet been approved by the National Assembly for the lack of a legal foundation, procedural order, zoning content and appraising board.

So the province recommended suspension until getting the National Assembly’s approval.
