Delegates attending a forum on investment and cooperation for the Mekong sub region, held in the central highland province of Dak Lak on November 9, all agreed that Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia need to work on common preferential policies to attract lucrative investments for the Development Triangle Area.
The Cambodia-Lao-Vietnam Development Triangle Area comprises of 13 provinces, covering a total natural land area of 144,000sq.km and a population of approximately seven million people.
Opening the forum, Dao Quang Thu, deputy minister of Planning and Investment, said Vietnam has now 112 investment projects in Cambodia with a total investment of US$ 2.36 billion.
In Laos, Vietnam currently has 50 investment projects in the development triangle area between three countries, with a total investment of $1.65 billion, accounting for 22.9 percent of the total number of projects and 47.5 percent of the total capital from Vietnam.
To date, five Vietnamese provinces in the area have attracted 75 projects from Cambodia and Laos with a total registered capital of $95.5 million.
Meanwhile, Vietnamese businesses have invested $3.09 billion in 75 projects in Lao and Cambodia, within the area.
However, the results have yet to match development potential as well as the strategic relationship between the three countries, he stressed.
Dang Xuan Quang, deputy director of the Foreign Investment Department of the Ministry of Planning and Investment proposed that the countries in the region need incentives to invest in less developed and disadvantaged provinces in the triangle area.
The three countries should coordinate closely in attracting foreign direct investment (FDI) and official development assistance (ODA) from other regions for major transport projects to connect 13 provinces in the Development Triangle Area with seaports in South Vietnam, he said.
These countries should work together in the development of mechanisms and policies to prioritize investment in this area, he added.
Thong Sisuvong, a high official from Laos said that Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam need to promote foreign investment into the region to create a driving force for regional development. The three countries should create favorable conditions and policies to encourage enterprises in other countries of Asia such as Korea, India, Japan, etc. to invest in the triangle.
He said these policies aim to take advantage of the strength and resources of each country, serving as the key to removing existing obstacles to invest in the region.
The delegates suggested building large-scale commercial material supply areas to encourage and lure investments in production and for export product processing plants along arteries linking Vietnamese seaports to major world markets.
They also proposed that the governments of the three countries speed up investment licensing, especially for big projects on hydro-power, mining, cash crop planting, and infrastructure construction.

Hun Sen does not know how to develop Cambodia with his own government.
This traitor Hun Sen needed to cede everything that Vietnam has demanded such as creating this so called Triangle Area, massive land concession to the Vietnamese, allowed a Vietnamese to control the Khmer soul Angkor Wat, and worst of all - besides the defiance of the 1991 Paris peace accord - allowed the mass influx of the Vietnamese into Cambodia plus granting them the right to vote.
Notice that these newcomers Vietnamese have heavily destroyed most of Khmer natural resource, but Hun Sen has never ever mentioned or deplored about these Vietnamese detrimental acts toward Cambodia. Hun Sen is like a dog who can only bite Khmer people, but put its tail between the leg when facing the Vietnamese.
In brief, the word puppet is fitted nicely with Hun Sen and his government.
So, keep going Mr. puppet, you have led Cambodia right into Ho Chi Minh’s dream.

This is good news for the tribal lands. We need to develop this region, it's so behind, and it needs a lot of investment, no matter who invest in it. Good for local people.
What is the fucking point of lumping Cambodia with Vietshit? The question that stupid Cambodian leaders want to ask is does Cambodia want to develop at the rate of Vietshit?
If Cambodia has everything to develop and to wait on the Vietshit is real dragged on Cambodia development! Just admit it! Cambodia has everything to develop into industrialized nation and why wait on the Vietshit to develop? The fact is AH HUN SEN is running out of ideas to develop Cambodia! What else can a blind man do besides seeing the world with his hand!
