On December 15, representatives of the People’s Committee of Binh Duong province shared that 2025, being the last year of the term, marks a year of determination and hard work for the entire political system, business community, and local people. They are committed to excelling in the 400-day and night emulation movement to celebrate the 12th Congress of the Provincial Party Committee and other major holidays in 2025.
In 2025, Binh Duong will focus its resources on large-scale key projects. The province is expected to commence construction on the following projects: Supporting Mechanical Industrial Park, Concentrated Information Technology Park, An Tay River Port, and Ho Chi Minh City Ring Road 4.
The An Tay River Port project is anticipated to span approximately 180 hectares, comprising a 97-hectare port area and an 83-hectare residential-relocation area. Located in the south of An Tay Ward, Ben Cat Town, Binh Duong, adjacent to the Saigon River, the port will have direct connections to two major ports: Cai Mep – Thi Vai in Ba Ria-Vung Tau and Cat Lai in Ho Chi Minh City. The project has a total investment of VND 2,279 billion, including VND 453 billion for site clearance. The investment capital for the project belongs to the investor, loans, and other mobilized capital.

The An Tay River Port will include facilities such as offices, technical infrastructure, berths, warehouses, transportation systems, and drainage channels. By 2030, the port is designed to have a capacity of 7 million tons per year and the ability to accommodate vessels up to 3,000 tons.
According to the People’s Committee of Binh Duong province, the construction of the An Tay River Port aims to establish a logistics chain to transport goods from Tay Ninh, Binh Phuoc, and the Central Highlands provinces to Cat Lai and Cai Mep – Thi Vai ports, alleviating traffic congestion on land routes.
Another key transportation project that will pass through the An Tay Port, the Ho Chi Minh City Ring Road 4, is also slated for construction in 2025. The Binh Duong section of this road project is over 47km long, with a total investment of VND 18,993 billion.

In 2025, Binh Duong also plans to commence construction on the Supporting Mechanical Industrial Park in Tan Uyen City. This project, with a total investment of up to VND 26,000 billion, is undertaken by THACO, a leading Vietnamese automotive manufacturer and assembler.
According to the provincial leaders, the establishment of a supporting mechanical industrial park holds great significance, as it will empower domestic businesses to thrive and deeply engage in the global production chain.
Additionally, in 2025, Binh Duong is expected to break ground on the Concentrated Information Technology Park project, spanning an area of 15.47 hectares in Hoa Phu Ward, Thu Dau Mot City. The initial estimated investment capital for this project is around VND 10,000 billion.
The project aims to create a conducive environment for the application, development, and promotion of the IT industry; establish a research and development center for IT products to facilitate training and technology transfer across various fields; incubate digital businesses; attract high-quality human resources; and ultimately enhance the competitiveness of Vietnamese IT enterprises.

Also, in 2025, Binh Duong plans to commission the upgraded and expanded National Highway 13 and a 1,500-bed general hospital, among other projects.
