The Secretary of the Hanoi Party Committee Dinh Tien Dung gave the concluding remarks at the seventh session of the Party body today [February 24].

According to Dung, the draft resolution, which maps out the strategy and visions for Hanoi’s development until 2045, would continue to be refined in the coming days and before it is submitted to the Politburo by March 5.

In the meantime, Dung expected local authorities to put the final touches on the draft of the revised Capital Law and the construction planning of Hanoi.

Among the key objectives, Hanoi aims to become a modern, green and smart city with high competitiveness in the region and of the world with an average GRDP growth of 8-8.5% for the 2026-2030 period and a GRDP per capita of US$12,000-13,000.

The city envisions high living standards with comprehensive and sustainable economic and socio-cultural development by 2045 when Hanoi would be a global city with international competitiveness and GRDP per capita of $36,000.

Referring to the current Covid-19 situation in Hanoi, Dung urged local authorities to continue following the Government’s instruction on a safe and flexible adaptation of the pandemic.

The municipal Party chief requested higher public health capabilities to ensure better treatment for Covid-19 patients and prevent the hospitals from being overwhelmed.

“It is important for all the people to have access to medical services in a timely, effective, and quality manner,” he said.

In addition, Dung called for the participation of central-level hospitals and non-state medical facilities to support the city’s Covid-19 response efforts.

Dung set the target for Hanoi to complete the administration of the third dose for eligible people above 12 years of age while encouraging those in high-risk groups to get vaccinated.

“The participation of the entire political system and the positive response of the public would be key for Hanoi to complete all political missions in 2022, including the containment of the pandemic,” Dung said.
