Of the projects, there are several major ones like the US-based Skybridge Dragon Sea with an investment capital of US$902,5 million, Daewon Investment Company with US$120 million, and SZ Slovakia Vietnam Company with US$100 million.

However, capital invested in Vietnam in the first two months saw a significant decrease compared to the same period last year with only US$1,78 billion in registered capital.

The rate of capital increase for existing projects also fell against last February with only 16 projects registering for such increases at a total of US$165.2 million.

FDI disbursement, in the meantime, experienced a sharp rise. It is estimated to reach US$ 1.1 billion, up by 10 percent over last year.

In January and February, FDI businesses exported goods worth US$4.93 billion, up 23.8 percent from a year ago, and imported goods worth US$4.19 billion, up 47.7 percent.
