The action plan identifies 11 key tasks and solutions, focusing on renewing thinking and raising awareness of regional development and the organization of national development space in the new era; organizing regional development space and effectively implementing regional plans; and synchronously improving institutions for regional development.
Other priorities include renewing growth models and developing new growth drivers for each region; developing modern, synchronized and interconnected socio-economic infrastructure; developing modern urban systems and regional growth poles; developing high-quality human resources, science and technology, innovation and digital transformation; promoting cultural and social development and ensuring comprehensive social welfare; protecting the environment and adapting to climate change; strengthening national defense and security, promoting external relations and international integration; and building and rectifying the Party and the political system.
The action plan aims to ensure effective implementation of regional plans in line with the orientations set out in the National Master Plan and national sectoral plans for each region.
It targets the organization of socio-economic development space in each region in a multi-layered and multi-polar manner, ensuring integrated connectivity between land and maritime areas, airspace, underground space, digital space and emerging development spaces.
This approach will be tailored to the functions, potential, advantages, resources and environmental conditions of each region following the reorganization of administrative units and the implementation of the two-tier local government model.
The Government will establish and develop key economic corridors, including the North-South Economic Corridor along the eastern North-South transport axis; the Lao Cai-Ha Noi-Hai Phong-Quang Ninh Economic Corridor; and the Moc Bai (Tay Ninh)-Ho Chi Minh City-Bien Hoa-Vung Tau Economic Corridor.
The action plan underscores a need for comprehensive reform of growth models in each region, focusing on productivity, science and technology, innovation, digital transformation, green and energy transition, economic restructuring and high-quality human resource development.
It also calls for vigorously developing new growth drivers in each region, including high-tech industries, high-value-added services, smart agriculture, the digital economy, data economy, green economy, circular economy, new economic models and high-value-added sectors.
The marine economy will be modernized through the development of highly competitive growth poles, economic centers, economic corridors and key economic regions closely integrated with the national urban network.
Priority will be given to developing coastal economic zones specializing in a number of key industries suited to local conditions, thereby creating breakthroughs in economic growth.
Infrastructure development will be elevated into a strategic economic sector that links railway, seaport, energy, smart urban and digital infrastructure projects with the development of supporting industries, while gradually mastering production technologies and increasing domestic content.
The Government encourages the development of high-value-added industries and sectors capable of achieving greater autonomy in domestic production and deeper participation in global value chains.
Support will be provided for developing processing and manufacturing industries, supporting industries, high-tech application industries and digital technology industries. Conditions will also be created for developing financial services, logistics, e-commerce and high-quality tourism. Agriculture will be restructured towards ecological and circular models, with the application of high technologies, higher value addition and lower emissions throughout value chains.
The action plan also prioritizes investment in backbone North-South transport infrastructure and next-generation East-West corridors./.
