The developer says the Son Tien project will be developed on a 375-hectare site with a financial and commercial center, a resort and entertainment sections designed in harmony with the natural surroundings.

Nguyen Tuan Anh, deputy general director of the group, said the amusement project required some US$600 million for development with the first phase up and running after four years of construction.

Anh said the group was mulling over a project to build a cable car system across the Dong Nai River to link its existing amusement project in HCMC’s District 9 to the new project to maximize the potential of both regions and to offer additional benefits to visitors.

Anh said the developer was working on a resettlement project on a 10-hectare site with some 200 land plots to serve families impacted by the project.

This is the second amusement project since Suoi Tien Group decided to expand its business in the entertainment sector after establishing Suoi Tien Theme Park in HCMC’s District 9 in 1995.
