Central province approves resort atop Ca Dam Mountain with investment of $36.8 million.

The central province of Quang Ngai has approved a VND810 billion ($36.8 million) investment project from the QH Construction Investment Joint Stock Company to build the Ca Dam eco-tourism resort.

Located in Tra Bui commune, Tra Bong district, the resort covers 1,300 ha and will include a tourism area, an eco-resort, a leisure tourism area, residential subdivisions and a public tourism area.

Mr. Nguyen Van from the Quang Ngai Department of Planning and Investment told VET that QH Construction Investment has not implemented the project on the schedule proposed so was unable to reveal the beginning and completion of construction.

Ca Dam Mountain is one among 12 destinations in Quang Ngai bordered by the mountainous districts of Son Ha, Tra Bong and Son Tay. The potential of the local area remains largely untapped.

To develop the tourism project atop Ca Dam Mountain, Quang Ngai authorities have decided to build two roads linking it with Tra Bong district and a road from Di Lang town, with total capital of VND30 billion ($1.3 million).​

The Chairman of the Tra Bong District People’s Committee said the road will be completed next year.

Meanwhile, many investors are seeking investment opportunities in tourism infrastructure on the province’s Ly Son Island. Projects include the Cau Cave resort, a sea tourism area in An Hai commune, a marine tourism area in An Vinh commne, the Mu Cu marine tourism area, a high-class tourism and service area on Be Island, and the An Vinh Urban and Service Area.

According to figures from the local Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism, in the first six months of this year Quang Ngai welcomed 420,000 tourists, up 16 per cent year-on-year.

The province also attracted eight new investment projects in the first six months with total registered capital of VND588 billion ($26.7 million) while disbursed capital totaled VND1.2 billion ($56 million), according to the Quang Ngai Department of Planning and Investment.
