Japan to build 2nd aircraft spare parts factory in Vietnam

HANOI, July 10 (Xinhua) -- The Japanese group Mitsubishi Heavy Industry Ltd will build a second factory in 2014 to manufacture spare parts for Boeing 777 aircraft in Vietnam.

Vietnam's state-run news agency Wednesday quoted the group officials as saying that the new facility will be located near the original factory in capital Hanoi.

Meanwhile, the factory in Japan's Nagoya will manufacture spare parts for the Boeing 787, as the aircraft maker plans to accelerate production of this model.

The first factory in Hanoi, which was put into operation in 2009, makes spare parts for the Boeing 737 and employs around 200 Vietnamese workers.
