Prime
Minister Nguyen Tan Dung on January 30 witnessed the inauguration of key
projects in the southernmost province of Ca Mau.
The newly completed projects are the Ca Mau
fertiliser plant, Dam Cung Bridge and a memorial complex to President Ho Chi
Minh.
The Ca Mau fertiliser plant officially turned
out its first products on the same day, after 40 months of construction.
The plant, built at a cost of US$780 million,
is a part of the complex of Ca Mau Gas-Electricity-Fertiliser. It is a key
national project and is expected to ensure a stable supply of fertiliser for
the country by 2025.
The plant has a capacity of 800,000 tons of
urea fertiliser a year, meeting about 40 percent of the country’s demand.
The plant is the final component of the Ca Mau
Gas-Electricity-Fertiliser complex, contributing to generating a combined
industrial value of over 34 trillion dong and nearly 1,200 jobs.
Prime Minister Dung stressed the significance
of the plant to the country’s agricultural sector. He asked Ca Mau province,
Vietnam Oil and Gas Group and the Management Board of the industrial complex to
continue to care for local people’s lives, especially the more than 1,400
households which had to relocate to make way for the fertiliser plant.
Speaking at the inauguration ceremony of Dam
Cung Bridge, PM Dung said the bridge is very important to the province and the
southwestern region as it links the south and the north of the province and is
the last point to access Ho Chi Minh Highway from the southernmost parts of the
country.
The bridge has a length of 668 metres and a
width of 12m. It was built at a cost of over 350 billion dong ($16.6 million).
Meanwhile, a memorial complex to President Ho
Chi Minh was inaugurated as a place for local people, especially young people,
to learn about revolutionary tradition.
The complex includes a worship room, a movie
house, and a showroom of documents, photos and objects relating to President Ho
Chi Minh.
