PM Pham Minh Chinh speaks at the working session. |
During a local working session with the standing board of the provincial Party Committee on December 8, held alongside the inauguration of Tan Nam - Meun Chey international border gate, PM Pham Minh Chinh called for sustained unity and breakthrough development, aiming for annual double-digit growth in the coming years. He stressed the importance of social welfare, support for vulnerable groups and families with meritorious service, and tackling long-standing obstacles while building a borderline of peace, cooperation and friendship.
Tay Ninh must build sustainable growth engines through sci-tech, innovation and digital transformation to match its role as a pillar of the southern key economic region and raise living standards, he said.
On specific tasks, he instructed the province to adopt drastic and concerted measures to achieve 10-10.5% GRDP growth in 2026 and sustain that pace thereafter. He ordered swift and effective rollout of the adjusted 2021-2030 provincial master plan (vision to 2050), with emphasis on industrial-urban clusters along the trans-Asia economic corridor, and required the Moc Bai Border Gate Economic Zone master plan through 2045 to be finalized by January 2026 at the latest.
Local authorities must improve business environment, attract investment, use state capital as a lever to raise private funds, boost outbound investment to Cambodia, expand local currency settlement with the neighbor, and ensure at least one high-tech park and one innovation centre start construction in the first quarter next year.
On housing development, the province must meet national 2026 targets, while strengthening climate resilience, resource management and environmental protection, with priority to irrigation, flood control and optimal use of the strategic Dau Tieng reservoir.
