Can Gio – a land that embodies two seemingly opposing values:

on one side is a UNESCO-recognized biosphere reserve, where pristine nature has been preserved for hundreds of years;

on the other side is the aspiration for modern urbanization, where Ho Chi Minh City seeks to open the gateway for development towards the sea.

Between these two extremes, Vinhomes Green Paradise Can Gio – a nearly 3,000-hectare coastal metropolis developed by Vingroup – must choose the only path forward: develop sustainably, expand without breaking ecological balance.

And the answer lies in the ESG++ standard framework – the “lifeline key” that enables the project to survive, thrive, and gain acceptance in the international market.

1. ESG++ – The Foundation for Development in an Ecologically Unique Region

Can Gio is not merely a coastal district, but a UNESCO-recognized biosphere reserve. Every construction project here, no matter how small, must be carefully calculated to avoid negative impacts on the mangrove forest ecosystem.

With a project scale of 2,870 hectares of coastal development, Vinhomes Green Paradise must meet the highest ESG standards – and even surpass them:

– E (Environment) – Environmental: Applying green construction technology, water resource reuse, and strict control over impacts on marine and mangrove ecosystems.

– S (Social) – Social: Local community development, job creation, improving living standards, and preserving Can Gio’s cultural identity.

– G (Governance) – Governance: Transparency, cooperation with international organizations, and alignment with global ESG standards.

For this reason, ESG++ is not merely a technical standard, but a prerequisite for the project’s sustainable and lawful implementation.

2. “++” – The Upgrade That Helps Vinhomes Define Global Urbanism

If ESG is the standard being applied in developed cities worldwide, then Vingroup has gone further with ESG++, by integrating two new elements: technology and human civilization.

– ESG + Tech: Integrating artificial intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT), and renewable energy into urban management and operations. A “smart city – green – clean – self-operating” metropolis.

– ESG + Culture: Building a civilized lifestyle that values spirit, environment, and community – where people live in harmony with nature.

As a result, the Vinhomes project in Can Gio is not just a resort city, but Vietnam’s pioneering “eco-smart city” model, comparable to Songdo (South Korea) or Masdar City (UAE).

3. ESG++ – The Deciding Factor in Commercial Value and Investment Confidence

In the international market, projects with ESG certification are always valued 10–30% higher and attract strong capital flows from green investment funds.

With the scale and vision of Green Paradise, achieving ESG++ certification not only helps open doors to international capital sources, but also:

• – Elevates real estate value through the “green credential.”
• – Ensures long-term sustainability in operations and maintenance.
• – Builds solid confidence with investors, residents, and authorities.

In other words, ESG++ is not just a moral value, but a smart economic strategy – a “passport” for the project to reach the world stage.

4. A Shield Against Public Opinion and Policy Risks

Can Gio is an environmentally sensitive area where every development move is closely monitored. Therefore, Vingroup’s choice of ESG++ is a strategic move to manage crisis from the outset: establishing a solid legal foundation while sending a powerful message that the project is built on the principle of “harmony between people and nature”.

This is also the factor that helped Vinhomes Green Paradise receive support from experts, authorities, and the international community, transforming a reclamation project into a symbol of responsible development.

5. Conclusion: ESG++ – The Only Path to Venture into the Open Sea

Vinhomes Green Paradise Can Gio is not just a coastal urban project, but a manifesto for Vietnam’s urban future. Only by taking ESG++ as a guiding principle can the project:

• – Develop sustainably in the heart of Can Gio’s nature.
• – Affirm its position on the global urban map.
• – And most importantly, deliver real value to the community and future generations.

• ESG++ is not a choice, but a condition for survival.
• Thanks to this philosophy, Vinhomes Green Paradise Can Gio is opening a new chapter for Vietnam’s concept of a “green – sustainable – civilized coastal city”.
