The project is currently behind schedule according to the investment license due to objective and subjective reasons. Some technical administrations have been completed. The Provincial People's Committee has recently held a meeting on the implementation and adjustment of Bao Dai Luxury Resort project. Nguyen Dac Tai, Permanent Vice-Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee directed the Department of Construction to check and assess the investor’s application for project amendment in accordance with the law; the Department of Construction to coordinate with the Department of Natural Resources & Environment, Department of Culture & Sports, Nha Trang City People's Committee and related units to inspect and handle related issues to ensure compliance with regulations on land, natural resources, environment, islands and heritages.
According to the leader of the Provincial People's Committee, to speed up the project implementation, departments and agencies based on their own functions were asked to review all procedures that had been previously taken to proactively have solutions or give consultancy in compliance with the regulations; the Department of Finance to soon chair and coordinate with related units to review the joint venture between Ha Do Group (the parent company of Khanh Ha Investment Joint Stock Company) and Khanh Viet Corporation.
Following the Khanh Hoa People’s Committee’s direction, Khanh Ha Investment Joint Stock Company has submitted the 1/500-scale detailed design of Bao Dai Luxury Resort to the Department of Construction for assessment. Accordingly, the land area is amended to 8.86ha towards the harmony with the natural setting as well as conservation of Bao Dai Palace within the project scale.
The adjustment includes removing a conference center adjacent to Tran Phu Street, relocating workshop, staff, technique, kitchen and laundry areas into a building block located on the hillside adjacent to the Institute of Oceanography. The building is designed to be in harmony with the natural terrain. Other adjustments include an access to the workshop hall and a parking lot; a 3.5m wide road for trams serving tourists within the project area, said Khanh Ha Investment Joint Stock Company.
The new design seeks harmony with the nature by lowering the building foundation and replacing tiled roofs with grass roofs to increase green space. The old existing villas are preserved and embellished towards maintaining exterior architecture, renovating and embellishing the interior to prevent degradation in accordance with the request by the Ministry of Culture, Sports & Tourism, according to Nguyen Trung Kien, Deputy General Director of Khanh Ha Investment Joint Stock Company.
Tran Manh Dung, Vice-Chairman of the Provincial People's Council asked the Department of Construction to promptly assess and submit the amendment to the provincial People's Committee for approval to facilitate the implementation of the project.
Reportedly, the Department of Planning & Investment has received a written pledge on the project progress from Khanh Ha Investment Joint Stock Company. Accordingly, the company pledged to complete legal procedures in the 3rd quarter of 2021, finish the construction and put the resort into operation in the 2nd quarter of 2023.
