OVERVIEW This report aims to facilitate the approach to business opportunities in the Vietnamese infrastructure sector by Italian companies. It focuses on Ho Chi Minh City, the biggest and most dynamic urban area in Vietnam, where plans for developing a wide range of modern infrastructure works have been designed and in some cases are already being implemented. In all infrastructure subsectors both needs and ambitions are very high, while existing facilities are overburdened. Furthermore, local authorities are very familiar with overseas development aid procedures and management of works carried out by foreign contractors and are adopting a fairly open approach to public-private partnerships. According to official estimates, the needs for investments in infrastructure projects amount to over Usd 23 billion, in the period from 2008 to 2020, with 22% of this amount coming from project finance schemes, 37% from Peoples Committee own funds, 18% from Ministry of Transportations funds and 23% from Overseas development aid funds (see table below). Project finance funds needs would be concentrated in the period from 2008 to 2015, while in the following five years the budget of the Peoples Committee would be the major source of funds. As tentative as they may be, given that they cover a very long period of time, these figures give a first overview of the substantial business opportunities which may arise in the future and pinpoint a strong business case for getting involved in them. Altogether, the city seems a very good starting point of entry for Italian companies, which nonetheless will have to face stiff competition and seek the right local partner, before bidding or investing.

Among recent developments, we could not help but notice a much deeper concern by the authorities with respect to transparency and compliance to procurement rules and best practices. This is much welcome news, given that some recent scandals had caused concern in the industry about the relevant administrations capacity to sustain the very high volume of activity in this area necessary to upgrade local facilities to current and projected needs. The lack of a stable presence by Italian companies interested in this sector contrasts with the active role played by other developed and developing countries companies, among which one can find French, German, United States, Malaysian, Thai and Chinese ones. To fill Italian companies knowledge gap with respect to business opportunities in infrastructure and to respectfully prompt them to act in its respect, the Italian Trade Commission, Ho Chi Minh City office, in agreement with guidelines approved by its Rome-based headquarter and the Ministry of Economic Development of the Italian government, is now carrying out a program of activities at the national level, of which this report forms an integral part. Data and opinions mentioned in the report are gathered from responsible persons of relevant authorized organizations, so they are expected to be reliable. Given that many projects are still at the design or initial implementation stages, changes are possible. Interested companies are advised to check with the Italian Trade Commissions office for further assistance and information.
The report is divided into six main sections. Part I is about procedures for bidding for contracts and investing in public-private partnership infrastructure projects in Vietnam, with a special attention to those based on project finance schemes. Part II is about some key information about Ho Chi Minh city and why foreign companies investors should consider it in order to develop their business. Forty-five major projects and some master plans calling for investment and/or participation in bidding for contracts are listed in part III, with all basic details for each one of them, including desired investment form, total investment value, organizations responsible for those projects and their contact information. The list is an operational tool which can be used to learn and follow-up about business opportunities. When appropriate, we mention the multilateral development bank (e.g. The World Bank Group or the Asian Development Bank), which sponsored the project; in these cases, we advise the reader to visit the relevant websites to collect more information. Unfortunately, regarding power and airport projects, we could not collect detailed information from the relevant authorities. Part IV introduces some reputable universities in Ho Chi Minh City related to the study of civil engineering and urban planning and architecture, where young Vietnamese engineers are trained and research in these fields is carried out. Given their public service and/or utility nature, it goes without saying that in all cases the project originator or owner is a public body. Therefore the authorities relevant for investors and bidders alike are mentioned in part V. This list complements the project-specific contact information provided in part III. The conclusions are articulated in part VI.
PART I:
HOW TO ENTER THE CONSTRUCTION MARKET IN VIETNAM
1. Introduction The Vietnamese construction market is one of the most vibrant ones in Asia and although it has been affected by the global recession in 2008-9, at the moment of writing this report i.e. in Spring 2009 demand was already showing signs of a comeback, both in prices and quantity. The construction sector, and particularly its infrastructure subsector, are poised for additional support from the Vietnamese governments budget, under the stimulus package under consideration at the National Assembly. Given that this report focuses mostly on infrastructure, we will not dwell on the residential subsector. In the civil works area there are two main entrance paths for foreign contractors, bidding and, more recently, investing in project-finance type ventures. 2. Bidding for construction contracts in Vietnam Broadly speaking, foreign contractors (FC), supplying goods and services related to construction, can operate in Vietnam under certain rules and regulations partially described in what follows. A legal framework about procurement of such items has been shaped by competent authorities and is still evolving. It is not as detailed and as fool-proof as in developed countries and gaps need to be tackled with a flexible and sometimes creative approach in order to do business efficiently. A. Legislation FC and their operations in the territory of Vietnam are governed by the Construction Law of Vietnam No.16/QH11 dated 26 November 2003 and the Tendering Law of Vietnam No. 61/2005/QH11 date 29 November 2005. As construction and tendering intertwine closely together, the Government and the competent authorities have issued a series of documents providing guidelines for construction and tendering activities in detail, namely * Decree No.58/2008/ND-CP dated 5 May 2008 providing guidelines for implementing the Tendering Law and for the selection of building contractors pursuant to Construction Law * Decision No.87/2004/QD-Ttg dated 19 May 2004 * Circular No.05/2004/TT-BXD dated 19 May 2004 guiding procedures and management of granting tendering permit for FC operating in the field of construction in Vietnam * Decision No.131/2007/QD-Ttg dated 9 August 2007 promulgating Regulation on leasing foreign consultant in the field of construction in Vietnam and the like. Among those, Decree 58/2008 covers most of the issues relating to tendering activities in the field of construction. Besides, operations in this field are also governed by international treaties to which Vietnam has signed or acceded. B. Overview of regulations on construction activities relating to FC Procedures for taking part in construction works having States capital may be different from dealing with those having non-State capital. As regulated in the Construction Law, the person making the investment decision or the investor in construction of works shall have the right to decide using one of the following forms to select a contractor, depending on the scale, nature and funding source of the particular construction works: 1. Open tendering, limited tendering 2. Appointment of a contractor 3. Selection of a contractor for architectural design for construction of works. Accordingly, projects financed by the State by thirty percent or more of their cost are compulsorily subject to the provisions of the Tendering Law. We will refer to such project hereinafter as to State funded projects, as opposed to remaining projects as to non-State funded projects.
I. Forms of selection of contractor Under the Tendering Law, the investor in a State-funded project must select a contractor using one of the following methods. 1. Open tendering This main form of tendering shall be conducted in order to select a contractor for execution of building works, and the number of participating tenderers shall be unlimited. The conditions and timelimit for participation in the tendering must be publicly announced prior to issuing tender invitation documents. As set forth in the Tendering Law, such announcement must be made in the tendering information newsletters and an English newspaper having mass publication (usually Vietnam News or Saigon Times), as well as via the mass media. 2. Limited tendering This form may be conducted in order to select a construction consultancy contractor and a contractor for execution of building works, upon satisfaction of one of the following three conditions. - The tender package is of a research and experimental nature and only a limited number of bidders is capable of satisfying the requirements of the tender package - The donor of the funds used for tendering requires that tendering be used - The tender package has highly technical requirements or technical peculiarities In this form of tendering, at least 5 experienced and capable bidders are invited to participate. Authorization to invite less than 5 bidders is needed from the authorized person or internal body (e.g. the Managing Boards of the capital-contributing partners). The nationality of a bidder can not be a prerequisite. 3. Selection of an individual to carry out a consulting service The investor selects one out of at least three (3) nominated experts on the basis of scope of work, workload, quality and time limit for the work as well as qualification and ability of the consultants. 4. Direct appointment of contractors The person making the investment decision or the investor in construction of works shall have the right to appoint directly an organization or individual to undertake work or construction of works if and when they are related to State secrets, or are to be done pursuant to an emergency order, or they are temporary works, works of a research or experimental nature, repair, embellishment or restoration of works on cultural or historical-cultural heritage sites and other special cases. Ministers and Presidents of provincial-People Committee are authorized to appoint a contractor for projects worth 5 billion Vnd or less (about 220,000 Eur). Appointed companies and individuals need to have full capability and carry out the works at a reasonable price. 5. Direct procurement of goods This form is applicable where a similar tendering package has been signed within six (6) months. 6. Competitive offers Competitive offers are permitted in the case of tender packages for procurement of goods valued at less than two (2) billion VND and where those goods are commonly used goods, which are readily available on the market. A minimum of 3 offers from 3 different tenderers on the basis of the order request in the tender invitation documents must be obtained. 7. Self implementation This applies where the investor is also a contractor. The law requires that there must be an independent entity selected by the contractor supervising the implementation of the tender package. No formal tendering procedure is required in this case to select the consultant.
8. Special cases Where the forms of selection above cannot be applied, the investor must prepare a plan for selection of a contractor, which ensures competitiveness and economic effectiveness, and submit the plan to the Prime Minister for approval. 9. Non State-funded projects It is not compulsory for investors of non-State funded projects to apply the provisions of the Tendering Law on their process of selection of contractor. They have the right to select contractors the way they want. Should they opt for using the above-mentioned procedure, then they will have to follow it. The investor and FC will have to stipulate an agreement, provided that it is not contrary to Vietnams law. II. Requirements for FC FC can engage in activities subject to selection of contractors including jobs, groups of jobs or the entire work of formulation of detailed construction master plans, formulation of investment projects for construction of works, survey, design, execution of building works, supervision and other construction activities. Nonetheless, some restrictions apply. 1. Whenever they are selected, FC must enter into a partnership with a Vietnamese contractor or undertake to use Vietnamese sub-contractors to implement their work in Vietnam 1 . 2. Pursuant to Vietnams commitment to WTO, for the period of 2 years from the Vietnams accession to WTO, foreigners could only provide construction and related engineering services to foreign-invested enterprises and foreign-funded projects in Vietnam 2 . As Vietnam officially became member of WTO on January 11, 2007, it can be assumed that such restriction have become null and void on January 11, 2009. FC can take part in construction works in Vietnam if they are awarded a contract, and have to meet the following requirements. - Contractors being individuals must have capability for construction practice, which is determined in accordance with grades on the basis of professional levels certified by a lawful professional training organization and on the basis of experience and professional ethics. - Contractors being organizations must have capability for construction activities, which is determined on the basis of the capability for construction practice of individuals within such organization and experience in construction activities, financial capacity, equipment, and management capability of the organization. FC must perform the following administrative procedures in order to work in Vietnam. Obtain a tendering permit prior to commencing their business. The time-limit for competent authority to grant/not grant tendering permit shall be twenty (20) working days from receiving FCs lawful application file. register an administrative office together with its address, communication resources, bank account as well as the seal of such administrative office. Follow other procedures on immigrant, exportation and importation, labor registration, etc. III. Basic contents of contracts in construction activities A well-written contract complying with laws and regulations is considered of paramount importance in construction activities. According to the Construction Law, it shall include the contents of the work to be performed, quality and other technical requirements, duration and schedule for implementation, modalities for checking, acceptance and hand-over, price and method of payment, warranty period, liability for contractual breach and other agreements depending on each particular type of contract and finally the working language of the contract.

Vietnam Infrastructure development in Ho Chi Minh City 8
3. Investing in infrastructure The relevant need of new and large investments in infrastructure, in addition to the relatively smaller amount of funds made available by international donors and to the gradual phasing-out of concessional loans, in this latter instance due to the fast progress of Vietnam on its development path, are all factors contributing to the need of increasing private investments in the sector, especially through project finance schemes. The Vietnamese government has opened new opportunities for project finance as the most promising way to reduce the gap between resources and need of infrastructures by promulgating in 2007 a new law, closer to international standard. Given that it has not been followed by more detailed regulations and that there is a lack of understanding and knowledge about its implementation among some of the relevant Vietnamese authorities in many cases a project-by-project approach is adopted to finalize negotiations. According to the list of infrastructure projects of national interest, the sizable number of projects that should be developed via Build-operate-transfer, Build-transfer-operate and Build-transfer investment schemes not only shows a strong interest by the government in finding alternative sources of financing but also underlines the new and positive approach of the authorities. Even local private investment funds activated themselves on national and international financial markets to collect and manage new capital resources to implement infrastructure projects. Some local authorities, among which the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Planning and investment, have voiced in several occasions their willingness to pave the way for infrastructure investments carried out by the private sector. Definitions by Law In Chapter 1, article 3, paragraphs 17, 18 and 19 of the Investment Law of 2005 and Chapter I, article 2 of the more recent Decree 78 of September 2007, some basic definitions are set forth as follows. Build-operate-transfer contract (Bot) means the investment form signed by a competent State body and an investor in order to construct and operate commercially an infrastructure facility for a fixed duration. Upon expiry of the duration, the investor shall, without compensation, transfer such facility to the State of Vietnam. Build-transfer-operate contract (Bto) means the investment form signed by a competent State body and an investor in order to construct an infrastructure facility. Upon completion of construction, the investor shall transfer the facility to the State of Vietnam and the Government shall grant the investor the right to operate commercially such facility for a fixed duration in order to recover the invested capital and gain profits. Build-transfer contract (Bt) means the investment form signed by a competent State body and an investor in order to construct an infrastructure facility. Upon completion of construction, the investor shall transfer the facility to the State of Vietnam and the Government shall create conditions for the investor to implement another project in order to recover the invested capital and gain profits Sectors open to Bot, Bto and Bt investments Article 3 of the Decree 78 of September 2007 clarifies sectors in which foreign investors can participate using Bot, Bto and Bt procedures. Such sectors and subsectors include roads, bridges, galleries, railways and tramways, airports, sea ports, river ports and banks, water plants, drainage and sewer systems for waste treatment, power plants, electricity transmission networks and other infrastructure projects decided by the prime Minister. Incentives and guarantees In Chapter 5, Section 1 article 27, paragraph.5, among the sectors eligible for incentives Construction and development of infrastructure facilities and important industrial projects with a large scale is strongly taken in consideration.
The incentives and guarantees in favor of all foreign investments are stated in the above mentioned decree and further detailed in Circular No. 59/2007/TT-BTC of June 14, 2007 of the Ministry of Finance. They include the following provisions. Corporate income tax incentives, on a project-by-project basis, for the whole duration of the project. Exemption from taxes relating to technology transfer and income from royalties on objects of industrial property, technical know-how, technological processes and technical services Other tax incentives on ancillary projects carried out by investors in order to recover capital invested in BT projects, on a project-by-project basis Exemption from import duties for the execution of Bot, Bto or Bt projects, both on equipment and machinery and raw materials and supplies Exemption from land use or land rent fees for the area of land allocated to the project Guarantees for loans, provision of raw materials, sale of products and other contractual obligations to the companies involved in the implementation of the project, as and if needed and on a projectby-project basis Right to mortgage the implementing companies property generated by the project Ban on any nationalization or expropriation by administrative action Capital Requirements In Chapter 1, article 4 of the Decree 78 of September 2007, it is explained that there is a minimum capital requirement for investors and it says that the equity of an investor used for carrying out a project shall be raised in accordance with the schedule agreed in the project contract and must reach the following minimum ratio. (a) With respect to projects with total investment capital of below 75 billion Vnd, the equity of the investor must not be lower than 30% of the total investment capital of such project; (b) With respect to projects with total investment capital of between 75 billion Vnd and below 1,500 billion Dong, the equity of the investor must not be lower than 20% of the total investment capital of such project; (c) With respect to projects with total investment capital of 1,500 or more billion Vnd, the equity of the investor must not be lower than 10% of the total investment capital of such project. Case Study: Lao Cai Hanoi Hai Phong Corridor Two highways, one from Lao Cai to Hanoi and the other from Hanoi to Hai Phong, in the Northern part of the country, are considered as national priorities for Vietnam and for its relations with neighboring countries, since they will improve the connection between Vietnam and Yunnan province of China. The project has the goal to boost trade between the two countries, improve the socio-economic conditions of the population and upgrade Hai Phong urban and harbour facilities to a major commercial and logistic hub for Chinese goods. The Asian Development Bank (Adb) has authorized a loan of 1,1 billion USD to Vietnam to implement the construction of the Lao Cai Noi Bai Airport highway (244km) and, at present, this is the biggest loan agreement between Vietnam and the Adb and in the latters history as a whole. The project has been conceived as a Bot investment and the Vietnamese enterprise Vec is going to manage and obtain the highway toll for 32 years, starting at the end of works in 2012. The Hanoi Hai Phong highway (105km) has an estimated cost of 1,5 billion Usd and investment, according to government decision, will be paid back collecting tolls over 35 years. The government is taking in consideration a special line of funding and so far a consortium made of Vib, Vietcom Bank, Viet NM Construction Export and Import Corp and Saigon Invest Group is proceeding with the project. German and Korean enterprises are currently part in the construction and construction supervision. One of the 10 individual lot contracts has been awarded to GS Engineering & Construction Corp (South Korea) and concerns the construction of 9,3km of road and two bridges over a period of 3 years. Funds came from Vietnam Development Bank (100 million USD) and Exim Bank (75 millions of USD, South Korea) and the investment is going to be paid back with a 25 year right on highway tolls.

PART II:
WHY HO CHI MINH CITY?
11
I. Geographical location Ho Chi Minh city a biggest city in Vietnam, with a total area of 2,095 square kilometers, is located from 10010-10038 North and 10602-106054 East. The city is bordered by Binh Duong Province to the north, Tay Ninh Province to the northwest, Dong Nai Province to the east and northeast, Ba Ria-Vung Tau Province to the southeast, and Long An and Tien Giang provinces to the west and southwest. Ho Chi Minh City is 1,730km far from Hanoi - the capital and is at the crossroads of international maritime routes. The city, with many ports inside, is 50km from the East Sea in a straight line, so it is a transport hub of the southern region and a gateway to the world. II. Population and labor force There are more than 8 million people living in 19 urban and 5 rural districts. The fairly young, with over 50% under the age of 35. III. Economy Ho Chi Minh city is at the center of the burgeoning economy and the countrys industrial heart. Year 2007 The country of Vietnam Ho Chi Minh city GDP growth (%) 8.48 12.2 GDP per capita (USD) 835 2,200 population is
In 2008, in spite of the high inflation and many difficulties, the city continued maintaining its growth rate GDP was achieved at 11%, 1.6 times higher than that of the whole country. The total export turnover was increased to 24.3% and the foreign direct investment (FDI) was reached 8.38 billion USD, 4.22 times upper than the same period last year. Ho Chi Minh city has been played an important role to the countrys development, accounting for 21% of total GDP, 30% of the industrial output, 29% of the total retail sales and services, 40% of the export turnover, and 33% of the State budget. In particular, its GDP per capita is highest in Vietnam, 3 times higher than the countrys average figure. As a result, the progress of Ho Chi Minh has an influence on the growth of the country of Vietnam. However, the development of the city in economy, population, and means of transport is quick, whereas the citys exiting infrastructure system is old, insufficient and not corresponding to the maturity of a big city and an economic center like Ho Chi Minh city. That more or less prevents the citys development. Deputy chairman of HCM City Peoples Committee Nguyen Trung Tin remarked that: "Roads are being developed by two per cent while the number of vehicles grows by 10 per cent per year, leading to the overload on HCM Citys infrastructure facilities." Realizing such problems, the Vietnamese government and Ho Chi Minh city leaders take priority on enlargement and completion of the citys infrastructure. The total estimated investment capital needed for road, railway and waterway projects for the city by the year 2025 will be $13.9 billion. Therefore, the city is calling for foreign investment in infrastructure for the citys stable development. Please see more detail about those projects in the next part.

PART III
PROJECTS OFFERING BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES Chapter 1 TRANSPORTATION
Vietnams robust economic growth is accompanied by an urgent need for a good transportation network and infrastructure. Vietnams infrastructure is in a worrisome state, with transportation systems largely weak, small-scale and below technological standards. The country has not yet developed deepwater seaports or standard highways, and urban road systems in major cities have not been fully connected to the national highway system. As a result, main projects are underway to build more ports, highways, railways, roads, bridges, car parks and other auxiliary facilities. The country plans to develop 6,000km of expressways by 2025, with 261km of expressways designed for high-speed travel to be built each year until 2025 at an estimated total cost of $22.8 billion. The Government has set aside billions of dollars to be invested in numerous mega-scale road and rail projects. In Ho Chi Minh City alone, the total estimated investment capital needed for road, railway and waterway projects will be $13.9 billion. With the total acre of 2,095 km2, there are 978 bridges, 3,584 streets with the total length of 3,668 km in Ho Chi Minh city. Most roads inside the city are narrow. Of which, 14% of them are over 12m wide, possible for bus transport. 51% are from 7m to 12m wide, suitable with cars and microbuses; and remains, less than 7m in width, fitting with motorbikes and bikes. Till July 2008, the number of registered means of vehicles was 3,926,730, including 361,411 cars (10.63% higher than in the year 2007); 3,565,289 motorbikes (6.8% higher than in the year 2007) and about 60,000 cars and 700,000 motorbikes registered at other provinces; 30,000cyclos and 3 wheel vehicles and nearly 2,000,000 bicycles. Besides projects financed by the capital budgets of the city and the Central, Ho Chi Minh city is calling for investment in other infrastructure projects under the investment forms of Bot, ODA and Bt. Here are some major projects attracting the concern of many investors. A summary of projects mentioned in this chapter can be found below, followed by a detailed description of each one of them.

If industry is to continue as a major driver of growth in the Vietnamese economy, there is a must to maintain the development of the highway transport system so that goods and people can be moved efficiently. Under the Expressway Network Development Plan, ADB provided technical assistance (TA) responding to the Governments request for assistance to plan the development of an expressway network. The TA funded a study of an Expressway Master Plan for the long-term development of the countrys expressway network, and identified priority expressway projects. The study acknowledged the Ho Chi Minh - Long Thanh - Dau Giay expressway (HLD expressway) as a high priority project and, based on a preliminary assessment, found the project to be economically, financially, and technically viable. 1.1.2 Specification HLD expressway is operating, connecting HCMC District 9 with Dau Giay (about 51 km) as a four-lane, high-speed, limited-access, tolled highway. 1.1.3 Objectives Transport users in HCMC and Dong Nai Province to travel from District 9 in HCMC to Dau Giay with lower transport costs on the HLD expressway. 1.1.4 Responsible ADB dept: Southeast Asia Department 1.1.5 Responsible ADB division: Transport and Urban Development Division, SERD 1.1.6 Executing Agencies: Vietnam Expressway Corporation Hamlet No. 2, Linh Nam Ward, Hoang Mai District Hanoi Vietnam Tel: 84-4- 36430266 Fax: 84-4-36430270

Chapter 6 WATER Until June 2008, the water supply development for the city was achieved 1,230,300 m3/day and the water pipeline web was 160,182m. The existing water supply system just adapts to the need of 1 million m3/day whereas the citys real demand is about 1.4 million m3/day. The slow adjustment of the master plan of water supply impacts the development of water supply. The current water supply system is old, insufficient and incomplete, so the ratio of water loss is still high and water is not pure, especially at water sources. Water Source Planning Exploiting Dong Nai, Sai Gon rivers and Dong canal, Cu Chi; and underground water sources Water source: -Dong Nai river: 1,500,000 m3/day -Saigon river: 600,000 m3/day -Dong canal: 200,000 m3/day Underground source: Exploiting 200,000 m3/day, including: -150,000m3/day for current urban area - 50,000 m3/day for Cu Chi area

Chapter 7 ENVIRONMENT AND WASTE MANAGEMENT
48
There are about 2,000km of sewers in Ho Chi Minh city. Of which, the Ho Chi Minh City Service Of Communications And Public Works controls 1,000 km of drains level 2 and 3; and remains belong to the management of local authorizations. The citys dredge system had been built for a long time and has just been expanded recent years. However, because of the rapid urbanization, leveling ponds for building residential areas, the lack of dredging sewers, lakes as well as the high population and the sense of human beings in throwing garbage to drains, pools, canals the living environment is polluted. In addition, the inundation often happens when it rains or even no rain, but high flood tide. Waste mostly has not been treated before running to sewers. Even though the city also invests some projects to reduce overflow, inundation has not been changed much, even worst. Here are a project financed by the World Bank and schemes calling for attention of investors. A summary of projects mentioned in this chapter can be found below, followed by a detailed description of each one of them.

7.1.1Brief introduction of the project and its objectives The Ho Chi Minh City Environmental Sanitation Project will lead to sustainable improvement in public health, and the well-being of the city's population, through improved reduction in wastewater pollution, and in flood occurrences, as a result of institutional efficiency in the management of drainage, and wastewater services. The two components are: 1) Construction of the Nhieu Loc Thi Nghe wastewater interceptor, to divert dry weather wastewater flows to the screening/pumping facility. In addition, combined sewer overflow structures will divert wastewater flows into the interceptor during dry weather. However, to mitigate the accumulated, odorous waters from the canal during rising tides, a canal flushing mechanism will be installed, drawing canal waters to the sewage interceptor, through withdrawal chambers located in the canal embankment, operated through automatic modes controlled from the pumping station. This pumping station will have hydraulic capacities, and is located at the confluence of the canal, and the Saigon River, with a river outfall discharge. 2) Drainage works to replace, and extend combined sewers to reduce overflows of storm-water, and wastewater. Includes dredging works for sludge transportation and disposal; cleaning inspection of secondary sewers; and, construction of tertiary sewers. Equipment will be procured to support institutional strengthening, and maintenance functions. 7.1.2 Project at a glance o Approval date: 20 March 2001 o Closing date: 31 Dec 2009 o Total project cost: USD 199.96 million o Region: East Asia and Pacific o Major sector: Water, sanitation and flood protection (sewerage)(60%) Water, sanitation and flood protection (sanitation)(33%).

POWER
53
Power need for Ho Chi Minh city will be raised to 100 billion kWh in 2025, about 5.3 times in comparison with the current demand. Currently, the thermo-electric and hydroelectric plants in Ho Chi Minh region can not satisfy the power need, so it is necessary to build more power plants. With 500 kV net, besides the two current 500 kV stations, it is essential to build more 500 kV stations: Cau Bong, Thu Duc Bac, Cu Chi. The total power of the 500 kV stations is 9,000 MVA. With 220 kV net, there are 6 current 220 kV stations, and it is required to build more 19 stations with the capacity of 18.750 MVA. With 110 kV net, there are 42 current stations with the capacity of 3,480 MVA and it is required tobuild more 110 kV stations to reach the capacity of 19,200 MVA in 2025. However, Mr. Tuyen the manager of the International Cooperation department of the city electric company the organization managing projects related to electricity development in the city, said the company would like to have favored loans for new substations as well as transmission lines, but nothing or no project in detail. Moreover, according to this person, about bidding opportunities, since they regularly used fairly simple spare parts which could be produced in Vietnam, he was afraid of that there were not many chances for foreign partners.

Chapter 9 PORTS Next year, 5 ports inside Ho Chi Minh city have to be relocated to new locations outside the city, including Tan Cang port, Ba Son shipbuilding plant, Saigon port, Tan Thuan Dong port, and VICT port. However, according to the consulting unit, only one out of five can complete moving. The two main reasons of this problem are their difficulties in capital and clearance work at new places. Currently, Saigon port can cover those troubles and is building wharves and infrastructure at Hiep Phuoc. To its plan, in April 2009, a 200m-depth wharf will be built for serving vessels of up to 50,000 DWT (dead weight ton). The new plan not only resolves the limited size, obsolete facilities and traffic issues, but also becomes more efficient as the new port complex is located conveniently among the regions industrial parks and export processing zones of Ho Chi Minh City, Binh Duong, Dong Nai, and Ba Ria Vung Tau. About Ba Son shipbuilding plant, they also completed clearance work at Phu My Ba Ria Vung Tau province. In here, a new wharf and dock will be built to serve for 70,000 DWT ships and to repair 150,000 DWT boats. Tan Thuan Dong port is asking for documents to release land at Hiep Phuoc to set up a new port. Before that, Tan Thuan Dong port got the permission to get land at Cat Lai, but then, another investor had this area. Therefore, it will take some years to complete moving Tan Thuan Dong to the new place. With VICT, nothing changes because they suggest to continue keeping the existing port; or else, to ask for permission to build commercial buildings and a trading center. While other ports are preparing to establish new ones, Tan Cang has brought 2 new port zones in operation at Cat Lai. Therefore, they just need to set up one container port at Cai Mep Ba Ria Vung Tau province in order to be able to receive vessels of up to 80,000 DWT. According to the approved plan, those 5 ports have to be relocated to new places before 2010, but the time can be lasted longer than the expectation.

Chapter 10 AIRPORT According to a report in the Vietnam News Service dated December 25, 2008, Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung approved loans for acquisition and construction of a new airport to serve Ho Chi Minh City and neighboring provinces. The new Long Thanh International airport permitted by the Prime Minister will replace the current Tan Son Nhat airport to serve Ho Chi Minh City's growing travel requirements. The new airport will be built in Dong Nai Province and will receive 70%of its capital from the State and the remaining 30% from strategic foreign partners and other stakeholders. The new Long Thanh International Airport will encompass an area of 5,000 ha in Doing Nai 's Long Thanh District and represent a total investment of over US$8 billion. The new airport is expected to be competitive with other major airports in the region but no definite date of completion has yet to be noted. Originally, the French Colonial government constructed a small-unpaved airport, known as Tan Son Nhat Airfield in the village of Tan Son Nhat. By mid-1956, United States foreign aid built a 7,200foot runway and the facility became South Vietnam's Airport. On December 9, 2004, United Airlines became the first U.S. airline to fly to Vietnam since Pan Am's last flight during the Fall of Saigon. In 2005, this airport served approximately 7 million passengers (of the total 14 million passengers in Vietnam's airports). Tan Son Nhat International Airport has recently accounted for nearly two thirds of the international arrivals and departures in Vietnam's all airports. Due to the increasing demand (about 15% per annually), this airport has been continuously expanded and will be replaced by a new big international airport in Long Thanh Dong Nai province like mentioned above.

PART VI: CONCLUSIONS The Vietnamese Prime Minister, Mr. Nguyen Tan Dung, pledged that Vietnam will provide the best environment possible for investors and investors rights would be ensured and protected in accordance with the Constitution and the law. Efforts to streamline and increase transparency in procurement procedures are under way, in co-operation with major multi- and bi-lateral donors. Vietnam is now a market economy and a formal member of the United Nations, the World Trade Organization, the Asia-Pacific Economic Co-operation and the Association of South East Asia Nations. Its stable political situation and other important factors have provided a good environment for economic development, especially in the foreign-invested and private sectors. The average yearly rate of economic growth has been 7.5 per cent in the period between 2003 and 2008, although both in 2008 and 2009 there has been a clear slow-down, caused by the global financial crisis but, according to some observers, also by some bottlenecks in the countrys infrastructure and availability of specialized workers and office staff. All this notwithstanding, licensed foreign direct investment into Vietnam amounted to more than Usd 60 billion in 2008, a record amount. As mentioned above, Vietnams robust economic growth is accompanied by an urgent need for good transportation networks and other infrastructure. The Government, as reported by the Director of the Foreign Investment Agency Mr. Phan Huu Thang, considers the completion of a modern transport infrastructure system as one of the key missions of Vietnams Government. Given that the Government is making a special effort to overcome the slow-down in the economy, that the pressure on the existing infrastructure is still very high and that a cautious but steady opening to private investment in public utilities and works is taking place, it seems that now it is a very good time for Italian contractors, banks and other services and goods suppliers to consider participating in infrastructure projects in Vietnam. Ho Chi Minh city is the biggest city and economic center in Vietnam. As mentioned in this report, here many infrastructure projects in different sectors have been identified and actively proposed to foreign investors and contractors. The wealth of data presented here confirms that the city is one of the best starting points for Italian companies willing to enter the Vietnamese market for infrastructure construction and/or management. When either investing and/or bidding for internationally tendered contracts it is necessary to carefully assess economic conditions and project-level data and information and to find a reliable local partner, all tasks in which the Italian trade commission can prove very resourceful. The Ho Chi Minh City office of the Italian trade commission sincerely hopes that this report can stimulate further analysis and elaboration on the part of Italian concerned companies and stands ready to follow-up on their needs and comments with more information and/or assistance services. Italian companies and individuals are invited to direct their queries to the address mentioned below.
