The Ba Ria - Vung Tau Administrative Center was built in 2007 on a land area of over 20 hectares.
The center was completed and officially put into operation in May 2012, including many clusters of modern office buildings.
The center is located in a prime land, convenient for transportation, the buildings and campus are well preserved, clean and beautiful.
For this center, transferring it to a university for reception is the most appropriate and effective.
According to the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Finance, Pham Ngoc Thach University of Medicine is managing and using 4 real estate facilities; while Saigon University is managing and using 3 real estate facilities, 1 facility has been reclaimed but has not yet been allocated land in another location.
The Department of Finance proposed a plan to arrange the headquarters of the Ba Ria - Vung Tau Administrative Center for Saigon University as an educational institution.
Ho Chi Minh City University of Economics commits that if it receives a headquarters, it will implement training for highly qualified human resources; scientific research, innovation in the fields of marine economy, ocean technology, renewable energy, seaport logistics, tourism, etc., in line with the strategic position of the eastern area of Ho Chi Minh City.
Every school wants to receive a center as a training facility, Ho Chi Minh City must choose to send gold.
That is to consider which school has a suitable training scale, has a large number of students, and needs a large facility like the Ba Ria - Vung Tau Administrative Center.
The school was chosen to return the current facilities to Ho Chi Minh City, for example, Saigon University, which is managing 3 facilities.
Thus, Ho Chi Minh City will have more real estate assets that are "golden land", to implement projects for the locality.
Another significant benefit is that relocating a university out of central wards will attract thousands of staff and students.
For example, according to the website of Ho Chi Minh City University of Economics, the school has nearly 38,000 students. If this number of students move to Ba Ria, it will significantly reduce traffic pressure in the core urban area of Ho Chi Minh City.
The above universities currently have many facilities, located in many areas, making it difficult to manage as well as other activities. If focusing on a large facility, it will be more convenient for the school as well as students.
The modern administrative center, located on a prime land, with an investment of more than 1,000 billion VND, must be calculated to put into operation early, leaving it unused for a day is a waste of a day.
