Working with the Standing Board of the provincial Party Committee, Hue advised the central province to complete tourism environment, infrastructure and products, and learn from major tourism centers’ experience, and change its mindset to turn tourism into its spearhead economic sector.
Emphasizing the need for Quang Nam to strictly follow the National Assembly’s resolutions and the Government's guidance in planning work, he requested the locality to review its land use planning, and focus on filling existing industrial parks and clusters, while developing new ones to attract businesses in the long term.

Regarding the province's proposals related to the public-private partnership (PPP) investment form, investment capital and issues related to finance and budget, the N.A. Chairman assigned the legislature's agencies to review the relevant legal provisions and build a plan to amend and supplement them, if necessary, to facilitate the locality’s development.
Secretary of the provincial Party Committee and Chairman of the People’s Council Phan Viet Cuong said that after 25 years of the reestablishment of the province, Quang Nam has enjoyed outstanding developments.
From a purely agricultural province, Quang Nam has risen to a relatively developed province in the region, with its GRDP reaching VND 102 trillion (USD 4.36 billion) in 2021, ranking fourth out of 14 localities in the north central and central coastal regions.
