Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Nguyen The Manh delivers the conference's concluding remarks

In his concluding remarks, Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Nguyen The Manh acknowledged the efforts of departments, sectors, and localities. He directed them to move swiftly to review all 2026 socioeconomic development targets, identify areas where performance remained low or targets had yet to be met, and focus on measures to achieve the objectives set out in the plan. The review must be completed before November 10.

The Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee directed officials to take decisive action to resolve obstacles to investment projects, particularly in site clearance. He directed officials to speed up property inventories, provide compensation and support more quickly, and expedite resettlement and site handover. He also directed officials to prioritize resources for completing infrastructure at industrial parks under development, invest efficiently, and avoid spreading funds too thin.

On finance, budgeting, and public investment, he directed officials to proactively balance available funding against spending needs to ensure payment for completed portions of construction work, strengthen budget revenue management, and address arrears in taxes and land use fees. Departments, sectors, and localities must accelerate public investment disbursement, particularly for funding from the central budget and funding allocated to national target programs, with each unit specifically accountable for its progress.

The Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee also directed officials to make effective use of the province's potential and strengths in agriculture, tourism, and distinctive local products. He emphasized improving quality, expanding markets for agricultural products, and developing tea products alongside branding and export efforts. He also called for stronger links between tourist destinations and greater promotion of those destinations.

On planning, departments, sectors, and localities must move swiftly to prepare, appraise, and approve general plans and zoning plans within their authority. They must ensure the plans fit together and complete the work before December 31, 2026. They must also review staff capabilities and responsibilities and assign staff accordingly to ensure that duties are carried out smoothly and effectively.
