Taiwan News cited sources from Vietnam News that one of Foxconn's projects is to build a 270 million USD Fukang Technology Company factory in the northern province of Bac Giang. This project is invested by Foxconn Singapore PTE and has been granted the investment license by Bac Giang. The factory, when completed, will have a capacity to produce 8 million computers a year, including iPads and Macbooks.
