Industrial Location Criteria of Planners for Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam

Abstract

In Vietnam, planners have their criteria for choosing the suitable location of industrial parks. Because of changing times, defining a new industrial location criterion ideal for today's society is needed.

By collecting data through a survey and applying the Fuzzy analytic hierarchy process, this study attempts to clarify the hierarchy and priority of industrial location criteria in industrial planning in Ho Chi Minh city (HCMC).

This study emphasizes the critical role of planners. Thus, the research can reference investors and government authorities in industrial park planning and become the basis for re-evaluating industrial planning in the new era.

Keywords: Industrial location criteria; planners; Ho Chi Minh city; Fuzzy analytic hierarchy process.
