On 08/01/2015, Chairman of Binh Dinh provincial People’s Committee had a meeting withKinderworld group (Singapore) after the team had a visit to survey locations introduced for Singapore-Vietnam International School (SVIS) and the Outward Bound School projects. 

At the meeting, Chairman Ho Quoc Dung appreciated Kinderworld group (Singapore) for their interest in investment in Binh Dinh. At present, Binh Dinh is developing a strategy to develop high-quality education and research in the locality. Specifically the International Center for Interdisciplinary Science and Education (ICISE) of Professor Tran Thanh Van is an ideal model to demonstrate it.

Mr Ricky Tan, Chairman of Kinderworld group acknowledged potentials of Binh Dinh and stressed that in the future the area would attract more investors. He proposed investment in a Singapore-Vietnam International School (SVIS) covering 5 ha in Urban Trade Area in Northern Ha Thanh river (Quy Nhon city) for children from kindergarten to grade 12. The other project is Outward Bound Viet Nam School covering 41.2 ha in Tan Thanh Tourist Site, Nhon Hoi Economic Zone. It aims to provide training programs for different age (primary school to university students and working people). The courses will give participants exciting experience of outdoor activities such as mountain climbing, rowing... in absolutely safe conditions in order to develop living skills, leadership skill and groupwork skill… In addition, the group will also consider the most suitable fee rate so that children in Binh Dinh can join in the school’s programs.

In Vietnam, the group has run 14 school of the model in Ha Noi, Da Nang, Nha Trang, Ho Chi Minh, Binh Duong, Vung Tau  cities; and the fees of these schools are different from the fees expected in Binh Dinh.

Chairman Ho Quoc Dung approved the two venues proposed by the group. He urged the relevant agencies to collaborate with Kinderworld group to finalize the best policies for the investor to proceed with the plan. A suggestion was also made to request the Central government to provide the best conditions for the group to carry out the projects in Binh Dinh.
