Phú Mỹ

Phú Mỹ was a provincial city of Bà Rịa-Vũng Tàu province in southeast Vietnam. In 2018 it had 175,872 people and it covers 333.84 square kilometres. It was formerly Tân Thành District, a rural district whose capital lay at Phú Mỹ township, and the district was dissolved in 2018 to form the new district-level town and then city of Phú Mỹ. The city seat lies at Phú Mỹ ward, from which it takes its name. The city was divided into ten commune-level subdivisions, seven wards, Hắc Dịch, Mỹ Xuân, Phú Mỹ, Phước Hòa, Tân Hải, Tân Hòa and Tân Phước, and three communes, Châu Pha, Sông Xoài and Tóc Tiên. Phú Mỹ is highly industrialised, with several industrial parks and the largest Vietnam wind tower factory of CS Wind. It is home to the deep water ports of Cái Mép-Thị Vải, which replaced Saigon Port when it relocated here, and the Phú Mỹ Power Plant Complex of 4,000 MW contributes nearly 35 percent of the electricity of Vietnam.
