Khanh Hoa eyes growth of 12% this year
The socio-economic development plan of Khanh Hoa Province needs to be implemented synchronously and comprehensively to reach the highest rate of gross domestic product of 12 per cent in 2011, said Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung during his visit to the central coastal province yesterday.
The Prime Minister requested that provincial leaders drastically carry out the Government's 11th Resolution to restrain inflation, stabilise macroeconomics and ensure social security.
In his address, Dung lauded Khanh Hoa Province for having made great efforts to save power while maintaining production and daily consumption.
Khanh Hoa Province should update its plan for socio-economic development and land use by mobilising all financial resources to construct Van Phong International Port and Cam Ranh Airport, Dung suggested.
On this occasion, he approved adjustments on the design of the Van Phong International Port capacity to 12,000 TEU ships.
While working with provincial authorities, Dung told them to take advantage of the provincial potential of tourism and port services to draw investments and bring Khanh Hoa into the hub of the southern region.
The Prime Minister also reminded the provincial leaders to protect coastal environment in their socio-economic development.
At the meeting, the Prime Minister ordered provincial leaders to recover agricultural production from the 2.8 thousand tonnes reduction during the spring-winter season last year.
Chairman of the provincial People's Committee Nguyen Chien Thang briefed the Prime Minister on recent socio-economic developments and implementation the Government's 11th Resolution in the province.
The province also suspended the construction of 43 works with total capital of VND150 billion (US$7.3 million) and saved about VND54 billion (US$2.6 million) with regular spending cut.
