Bourbon An Hoa Joint Stock Company has invested to build the Bourbon Anhoa TransAsia Industrial Garden in Tay Ninh province, the first of its kind in Vietnam. The garden is a good model to develop industries in combination with environmental protection, making Tay Ninh the first destination to develop green industrial park (IP) in Vietnam.
 
TransAsian bridge
 
Bourbon Anhoa TransAsia Industrial Garden has advantages over other IPs in the Ho Chi Minh City-Tay Ninh-Long An economic triangle, to gather the economic resources for Asian region in the near term.
 
The garden is located in the trans-Asia road route linking Vietnam with Cambodia, Thailand, Myanmar, Singapore, Malaysia and China, which will facilitate border trade with neighbouring countries and connection with redundant material areas.
 
The garden will also become a depot for exports to foreign countries and for imported goods to Ho Chi Minh City. Located nearby the Vam Co Dong River, the garden has advantages of line shipping to Saigon Port in Ho Chi Minh City and Bourbon-Ben Luc port in Long An province.
 
Green IP so called “Industrial Garden”
 
Bourbon An Hoa Company kept all green trees in the project’s site for further fostering in order to build a healthy IP while selecting a company to make master design for the park to ensure meeting international architecture standards and spared up to 30 percent of the land fund for growing trees. The project is aimed at minimizing exhaust gas and boosting material and energy reuse and waste recycling, easing treatment costs.
 
The garden is spotted by green parks, creating an airy atmosphere and healthy for residential areas in the surroundings and protecting the environment.
 
The garden will become the typical model of environmental protection amid serious global ecosystem degradation. Tay Ninh provincial authorities have recently held a seminar entitled “Vision for Ecosystem”. Participants including experts in ecological urban and environmental planning of the Foundation of the Future (FOF), representatives of the Japanese Kitakyushu municipal government, urban developing and managing experts of the Ministry of Construction, and state agencies emphasized the importance of developing ecological urban areas in general and ecological industrial parks in particular.
 
The Bourbon AnhoaTransAsia Industrial Garden has indicated people’s desire for an environmentally-friendly and modern urban area model as well as high-quality life, experts said.
 
Investment cooperation for development
 
Different from traditional IPs with stretching and uncontrolled planning, high-cost high-tech parks and closed special IPs, green IPs are regarded as the model with the best development potential in the near term due to its environmentally friendly characteristics.
 
In addition to maintaining the natural ecosystems, the most prominent of the industrial garden is the industrial symbiosis, which means that plants will join hands to exchange, recycle and reuse supporting products to ensure environmental protection.
 
The industrial garden’s wastewater treatment plant has a designed capacity of treating 3,500 cubic meters of wastewater per day in the first phase. The plant’s water outcome will meet the quality standard grade A and foster a wide range of organisms and flora.
 
The garden will have a centre to regulate supporting products to ensure smooth circulation of the products, continuous operation of plants and environmental protection.
 
Moreover, investors in the Bourbon AnhoaTransAsia Industrial Garden will benefit from investment incentives by the provincial government, particularly a 10-year corporate tax incentive.
 
The garden, with attentive and professional consultants, can create symbiosis value and satisfy investors’ demand.
 
Boosting development of ecological industrial park is of great necessity and importance amid the global warming threat. Bourbon Anhoa TransAsia Industrial Garden is the sustainable starting step for the development of green IPs in Vietnam.
