At a working session with the Standing Board of the provincial Party Committee on August 14, the Party leader commended the Party Organizations, administrations and people of former Tuyen Quang and Ha Giang provinces, which were merged into new Tuyen Quang province on July 1, for their unity, achievements, and smooth governance transition.

Tuyen Quang has shown strong performance in implementing the Politburo’s breakthrough resolutions. To date, 16 communes have met criteria for new-style rural areas, three achieving the advanced status, and four recognized as model new-style rural areas.

The province's multidimensional poverty rate has declined by an average of 5.87% annually. Cultural preservation linked to tourism has been prioritized, educational quality improved, and health insurance coverage reached 95.86%. The campaign to eliminate substandard houses has received strong social backing, while defense and security have been bolstered.

To fully unlock the locality’s potential, General Secretary Lam stressed the need to step up the building and rectification of the Party and political system, and promote democracy and the strength from the great national solidarity.

He reminded Tuyen Quang province to make thorough preparations for the provincial Party Congress for the 2025 – 2030 tenure, which is expected to mark a clear development turning point of the province, adding that the preparation process needs to be serious, methodical, synchronous and tight, clearly demonstrating the spirit of innovation, solidarity, intelligence and aspiration to rise up.

The Party chief urged the province to focus on green growth, digital transformation, circular economy models, and innovation. These should lead to the emergence of new production capacities, sustainable industries, and high-value-added products, he explained.

General Secretary Lam suggested that Tuyen Quang should restructure agriculture, using high-tech applications and advanced new rural models, creating agro-forestry value chains that meet quality and safety standards. Branding and geographical indications should be developed for key local products, he said.

Industrial development should target competitive sectors such as processing, manufacturing, and renewable energy, the Party leader noted, advising Tuyen Quang province to develop Thanh Thuy Border Gate Economic Zone into a multi-sectoral hub.

Tourism must become a key economic sector, he stressed, asking the province to leverage its relic sites, intangible culture, and natural beauty such as Dong Van Global Geopark, Hoang Su Phi terraces, Tan Trao relic site, and Na Hang – Lam Binh Reserve, thus attracting sustainable tourism and investment. Infrastructure in high-tourism areas should be prioritized, the Party chief added.

The leader emphasized that social development must accompany economic growth, stressing the need to expand investment in education, health care, and cultural development, with the people placed at the center of development strategies.

He called for awakening the aspiration and self-reliance of people, turning potential into sustainable momentum. Urban and rural spaces must be harmonized, cultural identity preserved, and the environment protected. The province must also ensure political stability, national defense, and public order to create a safe environment for growth, he underlined.

The Party leader concluded by expressing his confidence that with a proud revolutionary tradition and new momentum, Tuyen Quang will seize opportunities, fully unlock its potential, and confidently contribute to national development goals and the journey toward socialism.
