Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh requested Samsung to manufacture chips in Vietnam starting 2023 after it inaugurated a $220 million R&D Center in Hanoi, its largest in Southeast Asia.

 

Chinh said he hoped that Samsung would "prepare necessary requirements to manufacture ball grid array products as a trial, aiming towards mass production starting July 2023 at the Samsung Thai Nguyen factory."

 

Previously in August, Samsung announced on its website that it was preparing to trial its ball grid array products, and would mass produce them starting mid-2023. Semiconductors would mark the third business for Samsung in Vietnam, where the tech giant is already manufacturing appliances and smartphones, the Nikkei Asia reported.
