5.1. Summary of Findings . 59
5.2. Conclusion . 69
5.3. Recommendations 71
1. Thai Nguyen Province should focus on offering financial incentives for FDI
investors. For real estate businesses, Thai Nguyen Province should focus on interest
rate preferentials; for companies in manufacturing and processing industries, tax and
land incentives for factory construction may take better effects. 71
2. Thai Nguyen Province should develop its electric and water supply to ensure the
production and manufacturing of FDI investors and have contingency plans for
emergency cases. . 71
3. Thai Nguyen Province should improve the confidence of investors by applying
transparent and equal policies for all investors. Information about investment and
investment policies should be published in the portal of Thai Nguyen Province. The
province should also increase its PCI to improve the confidence of foreign investors. 71
4. Thai Nguyen Province should support foreign investors in training human
resource by cooperating with foreign companies in recruitment process and training
(such as language and skills in working in an international environment). Workers
who are introduced to foreign companies should be the ones who are skillful and has
strong sense of discipline. 71
5. Thai Nguyen Province should develop its supporting industries to supply
materials and reduce the costs for major industries. . 72
6. The transport system should be improved. . 72
7. Thai Nguyen Province should maintain its stable economic growth, which is
attractive to the investors. . 72
8. Based on the changes of variables in the model (3), Thai Nguyen Province can
make decisions on how to attract FDI appropriately. 72
9. The following further research can be conducted to develop the result of this
study: . 72
Direction 1: quantify the policy factors into an equivalent amount of money that the
investors may receive from the application of specific policies so that the model can
approach the reality. . 72
Direction 2: further research can be conducted to explore specific needs of the
investors, focusing on the factors which have been found in this study as well as the
the fulfilment ability of Thai Nguyen Province in those factors. Solutions should be
proposed for both sides. 72
Direction 3: the study has proposed solutions to attract FDI, but has not suggested
any solution to retain the investors and expand their business in Thai Nguyen.
Therefore further study can be conducted with this objective. . 72
