National Assembly Chairman Tran Thanh Man attends the first congress of the Party Organization of the south-central province of Khanh Hoa on September 22. |
He hailed achievements that the province has made over the past five years across all fields. According to a report delivered at the congress report, Khanh Hoa, which was formed following its merger with Ninh Thuan province on July 1, is likely to record an average annual growth rate of 8.3%, with projected GRDP in 2025 exceeding 209.2 trillion VND (7.92 billion USD). State budget revenue increased by 10.3% per year. Cultural, educational, and healthcare services improved, and social policies were better enforced. National defense and political security remained stable.
N.A. Chairman Man urged Khanh Hoa to fully leverage its natural endowments, including nearly 500 km of coastline, four strategic bays, namely Van Phong, Cam Ranh, Nha Trang and Vinh Hy, extensive offshore areas, and hundreds of islands including the Truong Sa. These provide opportunities to develop marine sectors such as energy, manufacturing, logistics, and high-tech industry, alongside building tourism into an internationally recognized strength, he suggested.
Social progress must advance alongside economic growth, with greater focus on education, innovation, environmental sustainability, and reducing inequality. The province is expected to develop smart, green, and liveable urban areas with modern infrastructure, the N.A. leader underlined.
Institutional reform will be essential to attract investment, expand regional connectivity, and unlock new development space. Special mechanisms and policies - formerly granted to Khanh Hoa and Ninh Thuan - must be renewed to maintain momentum. Proposals aligned with central resolutions should be developed to secure further advantages, he said.
