Da Nang’s adjusted master plan also focuses on tourism as a core economic sector. The city submitted plans to develop three new IZs and expansion projects on over 1,000ha in the west of the city. The city has called for investment in building a new Lien Chieu port as a major cargo port, while Tien Sa will be a tourism port only. The city needs to build a wastewater treatment station and a separate system for rain water and household wastewater. Da Nang has asked the World Bank to increase its funding for wastewater treatment in the city with a US$115-million budget proposal.
