Thai Nguyen's master plan for 2021-2030 got greenlit

Addressing the conference, Minister of Planning and Investment Nguyen Chi Dung, the chair of the Appraisal Council, held an appreciation for Thai Nguyen leaders for scientific handling of the planning work, noting that Thai Nguyen's master plan's latest revision has taken into account remarks given by members of the Appraisal Council.

The MPI top leader stressed that the scheme has inclusively reflected Thai Nguyen’s aspiration, raised development orientations, and underpins the province’s efforts to roar into a major development hub in the northern region.

Leveraging appraisals of the council members, Thai Nguyen's master plan has attuned to the country’s development orientations as approved by the 13^th National Party Congress and the 20^th Thai Nguyen Party Conference.

The planners have absorbed inputs from ministries, sectors, and neighbouring localities; updated the plan's resources in diverse fields to ensure practicability; and highlighted strong and weak points to best avail of the advantages helping Thai Nguyen to develop sustainably in the long haul.

At the conference, the Appraisal Council members, however, required Thai Nguyen to complement, revise, and clarify some contents in the transport, agriculture, urban and economic development segments, such as undue regard paid to logistics planning, among others.

According to MPI top leader Nguyen Chi Dung, seven localities received the green light from the Appraisal Council, in which Thai Nguyen has been deemed one of the best.

Nguyen Thanh Hai, secretary of Thai Nguyen Party Committee, said that the province would make strides to perfect the plan in the third quarter of this year.

The task of formulating the master plan of Thai Nguyen was approved by the prime minister in May 2020.

The master plan of Thai Nguyen province was developed with the goal to promote all potentials, advantages, and resources to bring Thai Nguyen to a fast, comprehensive, and sustainable development path.

By 2025, Thai Nguyen aims to become a modern-oriented and smart industrial and economic centre in the northern region.

By 2030, Thai Nguyen province wants to grow into a high-level electronics and mechanical manufacturing centre; as well as a centre for education, research, and high-tech application; along others.
