PM chairs conference on Central Highlands development
VOV.VN - Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh on November 20 chaired a conference that examines the Government’s action programme to realize the Politburo’s resolution on socio-economic development and defense-security in the Central Highlands till 2030 with vision to 2045.
The Central Highlands which comprises Dak Lak, Dak Nong, Gia Lai, Kon Tum and Lam Dong provinces is a particularly important strategic area in terms of economy, politics, security, defense and ecological environment of Vietnam. The stability and sustainable development of the region located in the Laos - Vietnam - Cambodia Development Triangle area play a very important role in the country’s economic growth and development.
In October 2022 the Political Bureau issued Resolution 23 on socio-economic development orientations and defence-security in the Central Highlands till 2030 with vision to 2045.
Under the resolution, by 2030 the Central Highlands strives to become a fast and sustainable development region based on a green and circular economy, and a unique attractive destination for both domestic and international visitors. By 2045 it will be turned into a region of sustainable development on the back of a green and circular economy, and some of its localities in the region will belong to the well-developed group of localities in the country.
The Government shortly issued an action programme with numerous targets set to realize the resolution. Notably, the region’s average Gross Regional Domestic Product (SRDP) is projected to expand 7-7.5% in the 2021-2030 period, with GRDP per capita to rise to about VND130 million by 2030.
