The Japan-based JFE Engineering Corporation and Nihon Suido Consultants Company are planning to develop wastewater and garbage treatment plants in the central city of Danang.
Leaders of the two companies held a working session on November 14 with municipal authorities to discuss the pre-feasibility study of the project.
In 2007, Nihon Suido Consultants conducted a pre-feasibility study on a project to improve environmental sanitation in Danang city. Based on this, Nihon Suido Consultants and its partners, including Sumitomo, JFE Engineering and Tsukishima Kakai set up a working group to develop the project under the public-private partnership (PPP).
The project is estimated to cost over JPY13.9 billion (nearly US$190 million).
