Vietnam has suspended giving out licences for new golf courses in an effort to maintain soil for rice cultivation and protect poor farmers, reports say. Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung has asked local authorities to review all existing courses, according to a report on the Governments website, while the Vietnam News daily said no new licences would be issued. "Golf course projects located on areas under rice cultivation must be unconditionally stopped," Phan Huu Thang, head of the Foreign Investment Agency, was quoted as saying in the Vietnam News. He added that no new licences would be issued pending the review of existing projects. Earlier this year, Vietnamese media said new courses had been licensed at a rate of more than one per week since early 2006, when foreign investor interest surged in the "emerging tiger" economy, which saw growth of 8.5 per cent last year.
