Can Tho to call off three delayed projects

Can Tho City authorities are set to pull the plug on three projects that have been delayed for long because of their investors' financial shortcomings.

They are the five-star Cai Khe Resort - Hotel project, Con Khuong Eco-tourism Park, an office building at 102 Cach Mang Thang Tam Street, an official from the Department of Planning and Investment told a meeting held on last Friday.

Deputy Chairman of the Cai Rang District People's Committee Le Thanh Tam urged the city administration to take "tougher measures" against projects whose investors have sought several ways for extensions.

Construction Company No 10 has delayed its Tay Do Cutural Park in Cai Rang District four times and has yet to complete clearance of 2,000sq.m of land for the work, he said.

Local residents have also voiced unhappiness about the long delay.

Le Hung Dung, Deputy Chairman of the city People's Committee, said delayed projects that have a large impact on people's lives ought to be scrapped.
