’Quảng Nam should model sustainable development’
The central province of Quảng Nam should become a rapid, sustainable and comprehensive development model, Prime Minister Nguyễn Xuân Phúc told the province’s leaders in a meeting on September 28 in Hà Nội. The PM asked the province to work with neighbouring Đà Nẵng City and Quảng Ngãi Province to create an economic hub in the central region. PM Phúc praised the province’s achievements in development, security and defence, and external relations. Good performance has been seen in several key sectors, including mechanics and infrastructure development, and tourism, he said. Currently a province with 75 per cent of its budget coming from the national budget, Quảng Nam is expected to contribute to the national budget from 2017.
