Hai Phong takes decisive action to accelerate toward 2025 goals

Last week, Hai Phong successfully held its first Patriotic Emulation Congress for the 2025 – 2030 period. On behalf of the Party, the State, and the Central Council for Emulation and Commendation, Vice President Vo Thi Anh Xuan acknowledged and highly valued the city’s remarkable results in patriotic emulation movements, along with significant achievements of its Party, authorities, and people over the past time.

In the new phase of development, with the goal of building Hai Phong into a modern, civilized, ecological, and worth-living industrial port city of regional scale in Southeast Asia by 2030, the Vice President called on the Party, authorities, and people of Hai Phong to promote unity, innovation, and creativity; seize opportunities; overcome challenges; and effectively harness the city’s inherent potential and advantages.

Party committees and local authorities were urged to focus emulation movements on addressing bottlenecks, breakthroughs, and key tasks, closely aligning them with political missions and the city’s first Party Congress Resolution, and emphasizing the three pillars of development: industry, seaport, and tourism–services.

In the first nine months of 2025, especially following the merger of provincial-level administrative units as directed by Central bodies, the city concentrated on removing obstacles, accelerating site clearance, and implementing numerous key projects.

At the same time, Hai Phong started implementing the National Assembly’s Resolution No. 226/2025/QH15 on piloting several special mechanisms and policies for the city’s development, ensuring feasibility and consistency in implementation.

With little time remaining before the year-end performance review, the city’s leadership has directed departments, sectors, and localities to promptly remove bottlenecks and obstacles to promote production, business, import, and export; accelerate social housing projects, national target programs, and public investment disbursement.

Meanwhile, the city’s entire political system will mobilize maximum resources, swiftly remove barriers, and decisively execute the planned tasks to meet the 2025 growth target.

The city will focus on expediting progress at investment projects, particularly major FDI ones, industrial parks, and the LNG power plant, to soon contribute to construction and production value and drive GRDP growth.

Hai Phong will also urgently study and apply a “green lane” mechanism to shorten administrative processing times for key tasks, strategic projects, and enterprises with large production value, thereby increasing industrial output and fostering sustainable economic growth.
