Occupancy rates in the planned IPs reach 53.35 percent, occupancy rate on land acquisition for rent reached 74.84 percent. The IPs have attracted major investment projects at home and abroad with modern technology such as Samsung, Canon and ABB. From that, the IPs have created an image which attracts other satellite investors. Bac Ninh IPs determine and develop some key industries such as electronics, mechanical, high-tech processing. Bac Ninh IPs have attracted 500 projects with a total registered capital of over US$3,782 million. There are 251 projects in operation (including 132 FDI projects). Industrial output value of enterprises in the IPs (excluding infrastructure development investment companies) reached VND51,927.5 billion, export value reached US$2,088 million, creating 67,750 jobs, in which, local labour accounted for 43.8 percent. Along with the development of production, the IPs also organise the local trade union which is a bridge between the employees and the business owners in the IPs, the reliable workers and business owners, creating harmonious, developed and stable labour relations at businesses in the IPs.
