Implementing this plan will contribute to transforming Vietnam’s coastal areas into vibrant economic and cultural centers, serving as gateways connecting the mainland to the sea and providing a solid foundation for maritime expansion.
The approved plan also serves as a basis for further完善ing the legal framework, enhancing the effectiveness of comprehensive management of marine resources and the environment, while also strengthening national defense and security capabilities, safeguarding national interests in the sea, and contributing to Vietnam’s vision of becoming a strong and prosperous maritime nation.
