Huge amusement park planned for Vietnam

(The Associated Press) - A foreign joint-venture company plans to build Vietnam's first large-scale amusement center -- a $200 million entertainment complex in southern Ho Chi Minh City, company officials said Wednesday.

The 116-acre complex, scheduled to open at the end of 2004, will include an amusement park, water park, movie theaters and an open-air stage, SaigoMax officials said.

A water park with rides opened in Hanoi two years ago, while Ho Chi Minh City already has two water parks. However, recreation options remain very limited in a country where per capita income has recently reached $400.

``I have rarely seen a market as ready as this one because there's literally no competition,'' said Walt Beglinger, SaigoMax's chairman.
