Also in attendance was Nguyen Anh Tuan, Secretary of Bac Ninh Party Committee, who was there to commemorate Goertek Vina Co., Ltd.'s 10-year anniversary.

Bin said, "Goetek initially arrived at Que Vo Industrial Park (IP), Bac Ninh in 2013. Since then, our total investment in the province accounts for a substantial 20 per cent of our overall global total, and the firm has already committed to three other projects."

These include a collectively registered investment surpassing $900 million, allocating $60 million to Goertek Vina, $565 million to Goertek Technology Vina, and an additional $280 million to its latest endeavour in Nam Son-Hap Linh IP.

However, the Nam Son-Hap Linh project has encountered challenges related to fire safety, electrical transmission, transformer stations, and various other factors. Addressing these issues, Bac Ninh leaders are slated for an on-site inspection this month to expedite a resolution.
