Efforts by all-level Party committees, authorities, businesses and people of Hanoi have been mirrored through a decent growth rate, higher State budget collection and investment compared to the same period last year, price stability and curbed inflation, he said.
Attainments have also been made in such areas as social welfare, culture, education, health care, urban management, new-style rural area building, national defence, political security, social order and external relations, the official noted.
The meeting heard that apart from these achievements, there remained limitations in the application of high and new technologies in agricultural production, and production-processing-consumption linkages. Local agro-forestry-fishery products also failed to meet food hygiene and safety requirements, said Nguyen Van Suu, Standing Vice Chairman of the municipal People’s Committee, adding that industrial growth tended to slow down. He pointed out other issues like illegal construction and traffic jam, plus wrongdoings in urban, construction investment and land management.
Director of the municipal Department of Industry and Trade Le Hong Thang said drastic solutions are needed to deal with difficulties in investment attraction in the remaining three months, especially at industrial parks in Dong Anh, Me Linh and Soc Son districts, and the Hoa Lac High-Tech Park. The hardest job lies in land clearance, he said, urging the districts to urgently remove difficulties facing businesses.
The delegates agreed to continue improving the local investment climate, removing bottlenecks in production and business and speeding up disbursement while raising the efficiency of the use of public investment, fulfilling budget collection and spending targets, and intensifying urban planning and management. Apart from ensuring political security, social order and safety and national defense, and improving the efficiency of external relations, the city will push up administrative reform and anti-corruption fight.
