Mekong Delta province’s 1H GRDP growth estimated at 6.5%.
Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh has directed the Mekong Delta’s An Giang province to focus on developing digital infrastructure, digital transformation, and an innovation ecosystem during a working session with local authorities on June 17.
The government leader also asked the province to continue to effectively implement the strategy for sustainable agriculture and rural development and the strategy for cultivation, animal husbandry, fisheries, and forestry; accelerate industrial restructuring towards increasing the proportion of processing and manufacturing industries; continue to develop industrial production; and gradually create more competitive branded products.
Prime Minister Chinh requested that provincial authorities drastically and synchronously implement solutions to promote the three growth drivers of exports, consumption, and investment, as well as focus on infrastructure planning and development.
The province should mobilize resources to develop infrastructure for cross-border trade. An Giang shares a 104-km border with Cambodia and has two international border gates, providing favorable conditions for developing border trade and connecting with ASEAN, according to the Prime Minister.
An Giang posted GRDP growth of 6.5 per cent in the first half of the year.
