On August 1st, in Da Nang City, Deputy Prime Minister Tran Hong Ha led a delegation from the Socio -Economic Subcommittee of the 14th Party Congress in a working session with localities in the North Central and Central Coastal regions.
During the working session, leaders of provinces and cities presented their opinions and recommendations to the working group regarding new development drivers and breakthrough approaches for the coming years. Some local leaders proposed early investment in a high-speed railway line to facilitate travel and promote socio-economic development.
Mr. Nguyen Van Quang, Secretary of the Da Nang City Party Committee, said that looking back at the geographical stretch of the entire region from Thanh Hoa to Binh Thuan , it is very difficult for localities to connect with each other due to limited air links.
According to Mr. Quang, the whole country is currently building a system of express highways, but if tourism is to develop even faster, there must be high-speed rail, and investment should be phased into sections and routes.
The Secretary of the Da Nang City Party Committee proposed that the National Assembly should approve the development of a high-speed railway line connecting localities in the region.
Sharing the same view, Mr. Thai Thanh Quy, Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee and Chairman of the Provincial People's Council of Nghe An province, said that while we are currently building expressways, we need to invest in high-speed rail in the future. At the same time, we need to pay close attention to the transverse routes connecting the East and West to strengthen regional connectivity…
According to the Secretary of the Binh Thuan Provincial Party Committee, Nguyen Hoai Anh, the next term needs to accelerate institutional reform, promptly address current obstacles to unlock resources, and strengthen pilot mechanisms to leverage the region's advantages. At the same time, focus should be placed on investing in strategic transportation infrastructure and making breakthroughs in digital infrastructure.
"The government needs to focus on providing appropriate support so that both state-owned and private enterprises can produce products that are strong enough to reach the global market," Mr. Anh suggested.
