Kong, FLC, Vingroup to change Quang Binh’s look
VietNamNet Bridge - Quang Binh, the land in Vietnam’s central region, is expected to have a new life as it has become the homeland of Kong and the area where many big real estate groups have landed. In 1997, Vietnam refused the ‘James Bond – Tomorrow Never Dies’ film crew. The event then caused a shock to the Asian film industry because Vietnam was the only country in the world which rejected such a large-scale film project.

Chairman of the commune's People's Committee, Nguyen Van Anh, told the English-language daily Viet Nam News that the tunnel was built during the resistance against French colonialists. It was discovered when a villager dug up a bamboo root in his garden on April 16. "The tunnel was built by villagers during the early period of the French war in 1947. It sheltered guerrillas and protected militia from raids by the French, and then the US Army in the late 1960s," Anh said. "The 6km-long tunnel, which leads to a secret exit beside the Truong Giang River, was a safe shelter for Vietnamese forces for years," he said.

Real estate sector grows ripe for mergers, acquisitions – Real estate – Economy
The Hanoitimes - A resource crunch has been creating a favourable opportunity for mergers and acquisitions in the property sector, an industry insider has said. "Vietnam's real estate market is observing an unprecedented period of M&A activity, with both foreign and Vietnamese buyers and sellers active at this time," Neil MacGregor, deputy managing director of real estate services provider Savills Vietnam, said. "While deals have been scarce in recent years, there is now a growing range of opportunities available to investors." The Vietnamese real estate market was critically short of capital and developers were therefore seeking new sources of finance. "Despite the recent clampdown on new lending to real estate, credit growth over the period from 2008 to 2010 has left many developers facing the pressure resulting from high interest rates, slow rates of residential sales and rising construction costs." There were a number of options open to developers requiring capital to … [Read more...] about Real estate sector grows ripe for mergers, acquisitions – Real estate – Economy
