The People's Committee of Binh Dinh province on July 7 granted an investment certificate to Singapore's KinderWorld Education Group to build a life skills education facility and supporting works in Nhon Hoi Economic Zone, Quy Nhon city.

The education project named 'Outward Bound Vietnam' has an investment of US$10 million, coving over 60 hectares including 18.5 hectares of sea surface.

The investor expects to take over cleared land and begin construction of the project within 12 months of receiving the investment certificate.

The project aims to provide life skills education programmes in accordance with international standards certified by the Outward Bound network for primary, secondary and university students, along with domestic and foreign officials, experts, and tourists.

Upon its completion, the facility will also offer services in support of training courses including accommodations, health services, restaurants, entertainment and sports services.

Although the project is not large, it has significant meaning to Binh Dinh province, particularly in providing life skills for the young, and helping them overcome challenges, said Chairman of Binh Dinh provincial People's Committee Ho Quoc Dung.

This is the 16th project of KinderWorld Education Group in Vietnam after others located in Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Da Nang, Binh Duong, Nha Trang and Vung Tau.
