Since the beginning of the year, Japan and South of Korea continued to be the largest investors in the city.
In the future, the city will continue to speed up administrative reforms, improve its investment and business climates and perfect infrastructure facilities at major industrial economic and industrial zones in order to better attract foreign investment.
Holding frequent talks between the city’s leaders and investors to remove their difficulties and revoking licences of slow-moving projects will be also included.
