In January 2024, Mr. Tran Quang Tuan, Chairman of Central Construction Joint Stock Company, embarked on his first official business trip to Taiwan. This marked the beginning of a strategic partnership with Honhui Group—one of Taiwan’s leading real estate development corporations.

The visit laid a solid foundation for a series of dynamic bilateral exchanges between the two companies, reflecting a shared commitment to long-term collaboration and mutual development based on sustainable and modern values. Currently, Central and Honhui Group are jointly executing a flagship project in the heart of Taipei.

Taipei Twin Towers: A Milestone in Strategic Cooperation

The Taipei Twin Towers, located in the central business district of Taipei, stand as a significant hallmark of the partnership. Spanning over 590,000 square meters, the development features two towers—one with 55 floors reaching 289 meters and the other with 73 floors reaching 369 meters. The project is designed by the internationally acclaimed American architectural firm SOM (Skidmore, Owings & Merrill).

From the outset, Central demonstrated a clear commitment to technological advancement by implementing Building Information Modeling (BIM) for its scope of work on the project. Impressed by the effectiveness of this approach, the investor expanded the application of BIM to the entire project and entrusted Central with the role of General BIM Coordinator.

This development represents not only a significant technical breakthrough but also a strong recognition of Central’s capabilities in project management and technological leadership on internationally symbolic constructions.

Leadership at the Frontline: Responsibility from Site to Workforce

During the site visit, Chairman Tran Quang Tuan directly inspected construction progress and quality, expressing high praise for the Vietnamese engineers and workers operating on-site in Taiwan.

He also visited the canteen and living quarters to inquire about the workers’ living conditions, health, and overall well-being. His warm, sincere interactions conveyed a clear message: “Central is not only building structures—it is cultivating a humane, supportive working and living environment for its team.”

Zhongya Anju: Expanding International Footprint

The business trip continued to Hsinchu, Taiwan’s high-tech capital, where Central is executing the Zhongya Anju high-rise residential project. Covering over 59,000 square meters, the development consists of 2 towers, each with 21 stories and 4 basement levels. As a project with strong community significance, Zhongya Anju aims to create a high-quality living space for local residents.

Central is also a strategic partner of Sunsea Construction Corporation, a major construction firm in Taiwan. In Hsinchu, Chairman Tran met directly with Mr. Jerry H. Chiu, Chairman of Sunsea, to discuss long-term cooperation strategies. He also visited the construction site to meet and encourage Vietnamese workers, reinforcing morale and solidarity within the workforce.

More Than a Trip – A Strategic Vision

Chairman Tran’s business trip to Taiwan was far more than a diplomatic visit—it was a strategic move in Central’s long-term plan to expand its international presence, enhance its technological capabilities, and establish the Central brand on the regional and global construction map.

From undertaking landmark international projects to embedding humanistic values into every level of operation, Central is steadily realizing its vision of becoming Vietnam’s leading general contractor in world-class developments.

This event marks a significant milestone, symbolizing the beginning of a strategic development journey aimed at not only constructing a new architectural landmark but also unlocking the tremendous development potential of Cat Ba Island.

The project features key highlights including a central square, an international-standard public artificial beach, pedestrian streets lined with service and retail facilities, and distinctive architectural elements inspired by the stunning beauty of Lan Ha Bay. These features will turn the central square into a vibrant cultural hub and a functional public space for both local residents and tourists.

Tower HH1 plays a crucial role in the overall plan for Cat Ba’s town center and will be one of the key attractions that help realize Sun Group’s strategic vision. We firmly believe that Central, with its unwavering commitment and high sense of responsibility, will deliver a product of exceptional quality and distinction.”

The speech reflected not only the strong confidence placed in Central but also deep expectations for Tower HH1 to serve as a pioneering development that will redefine the image of the island.

We are hopeful that the impact of Central’s construction efforts on Tower HH1 will further strengthen the successful partnership between our two organizations in the time ahead.”

From a general contractor, Central has continuously strived to evolve into a strategic partner accompanying investors in the creation of symbolic structures that embody principles of green growth, sustainability, and international integration.

With the guiding principles of Quality – Safety – Progress – Sustainability, each project undertaken by Central is more than just a construction endeavor; it is a demonstration of comprehensive capability in project management and execution. The company’s engineers and architects operate with the highest level of dedication and responsibility, proactively applying cutting-edge techniques and technologies to meet investor expectations — particularly on projects with strategic importance such as Tower HH1.

The groundbreaking ceremony concluded not only with solemn rituals but also with the official start of a new chapter — the journey of transforming the vision of a modern, prosperous, and environmentally pristine Cat Ba into reality.

He encouraged expanding bilateral cooperation in new fields, including software design.

“I am impressed by the professionalism, the safety of the construction site, the technical skill of the workforce, the organized material logistics, and the high construction quality of Central.

These visits focused on assessing living conditions, housing, and working environments for the Vietnamese workforce.

Central is not just going to Israel to build structures, it carries a larger mission: to build trust, affirm its brand, and embody the image of the Vietnamese people – resilient, disciplined, and full of aspiration.
