It will also take advantage of the forest environment for eco-tourism development, he added.
The plan has biding regulations for tenants to ensure the diversity of the flora and fauna in the leased forests, the Vice Chairman said, adding that if the forest environment and panorama are destructed, the renters themselves will also suffer losses.
The total area of forest for lease is more than 6,800 hectares in U Minh Thuong, An Minh, Kien Luong, Kien Hai and Hon Dat districts, and Ha Tien town.
