Out of the 40 countries to invest in the country so far during 2008, Malaysia was at the top of the list with $14.8 billion provided for 37 projects.
Taiwan was in second place with $8.6 billion in 116 projects followed by Japan, Brunei and Canada.
Further findings from the agency showed $8.1 billion in FDI was dispersed, an increase of 3.7 per cent compared with the same period last year.
Meanwhile, VietNam Net Bridge reported that Vietnam's Housing and Urban Development Corporation (HUD) is to develop a series of real estate projects in Cuba.
