  • National Highway 27: Connects Buon Ma Thuot with Lam Dong and Ninh Thuan provinces, providing access to seaports in the South Central region.
  • Expressways: Currently, Dak Lak does not have any completed expressways. However, the Khanh Hoa – Buon Ma Thuot Expressway is being promoted for investment. Once completed, it will significantly shorten the time for transporting goods to Van Phong International Seaport (Khanh Hoa) and neighboring seaports, creating a superior competitive advantage.
  • Air:
  • Buon Ma Thuot Airport (BMV): Planned for upgrading to an international airport, it currently operates important domestic routes, serving high-value cargo and passenger transport.
  • Border crossing:
  • Dak Rue border gate (Ea Sup district): Plays an important role in cross-border trade, connecting with Cambodia and opening up potential markets for industrial products and processed agricultural products.
  • Railways/Seaports: Dak Lak currently lacks a railway connection. The transportation of export goods relies on road transport to connect with nearby seaports such as Quy Nhon (Binh Dinh) , Nha Trang/Van Phong (Khanh Hoa) , and Cat Lai (Ho Chi Minh City) .

2.2. Technical infrastructure and support services for the industrial park.

Industrial parks in Dak Lak, such as Hoa Phu Industrial Park, are comprehensively developed and ready to welcome investors:

  • Electricity and Water: The national power grid is stable. A sufficient supply of clean water is provided by local water treatment plants.
  • Telecommunications: Extensive fiber optic and 4G/5G network coverage, meeting the high-speed connectivity requirements for smart manufacturing.
  • Environmental Management: All industrial parks have centralized wastewater treatment plants that meet prescribed standards before discharge, ensuring environmental requirements for investment projects.
  • Logistics & Utilities: The province is encouraging the development of professional logistics centers in Buon Ma Thuot City. Residential and service areas have been established around industrial zones, meeting the housing and living needs of experts and workers.

2.3. Regional Linkages and Supply Chains

Dak Lak has close ties with key economic regions:

  • For the South Central region: It serves as a source of raw materials and agricultural products, while also receiving industrial goods and transportation services from seaports.
  • For the Southeast region (Ho Chi Minh City): It is a large consumer market and a center for finance and technology, attracting high-quality human resources and supporting industrial supply chains.
