In a recent decision on July 31, Dong Nai will revoke 24,913 square meters of land in Phuoc Dai Phuoc commune, Nhon Trach district, from Vina Dai Phuoc. The land was previously granted to the company on December 31, 2007, with land-use rights certificates issued to the Joint Stock Company for Investment, Development, and Construction (HOSE: DIG). The Land Registration Office (now the Provincial Land Registration Office) registered a change on March 19, 2008, transferring the land-use rights to Vina Dai Phuoc Joint Stock Company, as the company received capital contribution in the form of land-use rights.

The reason for the land revocation is that Vina Dai Phuoc has transferred a part of the project to KinderWorld Vietnam Joint Stock Company, as per the decision of the People’s Committee in December 2020.

On the same day, July 31, the Provincial People’s Committee also decided to lease the land to KingderWorld Vietnam to implement the Singapore International Education Area project in Dai Phuoc commune, Nhon Trach district. The leased area is 24,913 square meters, which was revoked from Vina Dai Phuoc as mentioned above.

The land lease is in the form of a one-time payment for the entire lease period. The lease term is from July 31, 2024, to November 15, 2054 (the remaining land-use duration of Vina Dai Phuoc).

Vina Dai Phuoc Joint Stock Company is a joint venture between DIG and VinaCapital (through two member funds), established in 2007 with a charter capital of nearly VND 1,654 billion, to implement the Hoa Sen Dai Phuoc project. As of August 2016, DIG held 28% of the capital, while the two foreign shareholders, VinaCapital Pacific Limited – Singapore, owned 54%, and Allright Assets Limited – Singapore held 18% of Vina Dai Phuoc.

Subsequently, the founding shareholders of Vina Dai Phuoc, VinaCapital and DIG, successively withdrew their capital. The transferee of VinaCapital’s stake was China Fortune Land Development (CFLD), an industrial real estate development corporation in China. The project, after changing hands to the new investor, was renamed from Hoa Sen Dai Phuoc to SwanBay Dai Phuoc. In late 2021, Vina Dai Phuoc announced that SNC Investments 27 and 28, two subsidiaries of CFLD (registered in Singapore), were no longer part of the company’s shareholder structure.
