During the first 20 days of January 2011, HCM City licensed 14 foreign-funded projects amounting to $43 million, the Thoi Bao Kinh Te Saigon newspaper reported, citing Vo Van Luan, Chief of HCM City People’s Committee office as saying on January 24.

Another six FDI projects were registered to be increased in capital size with an extra $7 million in January.

On January 21, the committee granted the investment certificate to a solar battery production project worth $1 billion by First Solar Group, which is expected to contribute $1 billion a year to the city’s export turnover once it is put operation by April 2014.
