The Prime Minister requested that Tay Ninh province focus on implementing “One focus, two enhancements, three promotions.”
According to the Prime Minister, “One focus” is to mobilize and effectively utilize all legitimate resources to promote traditional growth drivers (investment, export, consumption); and to break into new growth drivers such as the green economy, digital economy, circular economy, sharing economy, knowledge economy, climate change response and sustainable development.
The Prime Minister said that “Two enhancements” are enhancing investment in human development (improving education, training high-quality human resources, developing talents, ensuring social security, leaving no one behind); and enhancing regional, inter-regional, domestic and international linkages through connecting transportation systems and production and supply chains.
According to the Prime Minister, “Three promotions” include: Promoting the development of a synchronous and comprehensive strategic infrastructure system (in terms of transportation, climate change response, digital infrastructure, healthcare, education, social welfare, etc.); promoting the development of industry serving processing, manufacturing, and the production and supply chain for the region and the world, especially those industries in which the locality has strengths; maximizing the exploitation of the locality’s distinctive potential and outstanding opportunities; and promoting the application of science and technology, innovation, and start-ups in production and business to create jobs and stable and growing livelihoods for the people.
The Prime Minister also reminded Tay Ninh of five “ensurances” in implementing the plan. These are to ensure compliance with the plan; ensure the consistency of the plan; ensure the linkage of the plan; ensure the stability, continuity, and development of the plan; and ensure the flexibility and expandability of the plan…
