PM agrees to regional development programme

Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung has passed a 2020 master development plan for the north-central coastal region, according to the Viet Nam Government Portal.

 

Under the plan, the region will strive to reach a per-capita GDP of US$2,500 by 2020.

By 2015, industry, services and agriculture should make up 41.9 per cent, 39.9 per cent and 18.2 per cent of the region's economy, respectively.

The poverty rate is expected to drop yearly by 2-3 per cent.

Regarding agriculture, specialised cultivation zones will be used to grow high-quality, high-yield products, especially fruit and timber.

Aquaculture, one of the region's major industries, will focus on developing high value products such as lobsters and seahorses. A number of salt fields in Thanh Hoa, Ninh Thuan, Quang Nam and Khanh Hoa will also be expanded.

The industrial sector will focus on areas such as ship building, mechanical engineering, textiles and garments, cement and aquaculture processing. Developing tourism, renovating education and training, and improving healthcare services are also included in the plan.
