In this business trip, Mr Nguyen Vu Truong Son also had a discussion with Mr Phillipov – CEO of Power Machines Contractor. The Contractor reported to Mr Nguyen Vu Truong Son on the current progress of Long Phu 1 Thermoelectric Plant. Accordingly, Long Phu 1 Thermoelectric Plant project was facing various obstacles in funding arrangement and management. The delay in implementing this project had severely affected the ability to complete tasks assigned to PVN by the Government of Vietnam.
President of the corporation elaborately analyzed the possible consequences if the Contractor failed to come up with effective and timely solutions; and thereby requested Power Machines to have more drastic actions to accelerate the progress and complete Long Phu 1 Thermoelectric Plant project within schedule in the EPC Contract. This would be a prerequisite condition for PVN’s to further consider and propose to continue the cooperation with Power Machines Contractor in the future to the Government of Vietnam.
