According to Mr. Nguyen Ngoc Thien, Vice Chairman of the People's Committee of Pho Yen City: "In recent times, Pho Yen City has paid much attention to the development of industrial clusters. However, in the implementation process, there are still some difficulties and obstacles, such as: The progress of site clearance is still slow; the issue of centralized wastewater treatment has been paid attention to but not implemented synchronously; the traffic infrastructure outside the fences of some industrial clusters has not been invested; the occupancy rate at industrial clusters is still low..."

Based on the above reality, the People's Committee of Pho Yen City has mobilized the participation of the entire political system, agencies and units related to industrial clusters to remove bottlenecks in investment procedures, land allocation, compensation for land clearance and resettlement. Each agency, locality and unit, according to their functions and authority, focuses on solving arising problems. Regarding the issue of centralized wastewater treatment in industrial parks, the City People's Committee has strengthened coordination with provincial departments and branches to conduct field surveys; based on the consideration of the characteristics of each industrial cluster to mobilize and request investors to build appropriate and effective centralized wastewater treatment stations.
