Thua Thien-Hue owns big potential in developing tourism economy
The central province of Thua Thien-Hue holds huge potential in developing tourism, industry, agriculture and the marine-based economy, Deputy Prime Minister Vuong Dinh Hue stressed at a local investment promotion conference on August 8.
Deputy Prime Minister (PM) Vuong Dinh Hue attended a tourism and investment promotion conference in the central province of Thua Thien-Hue on August 8 held by the provincial People's Committee and the Bank for Investment and Development of Vietnam (BIDV).
Addressing the conference, Deputy PM Hue asked the central province of Thua Thien-Hue to develop tourism into its spearhead economy.
To attract more investments, the Deputy PM suggested the provincial authorities to announce investment policies more clearly and detail.
The Deputy PM asked ministries, agencies and the BIDV to facilitate the transforming of Thua Thien-Hue into a centrally-run city and a regional hub of culture, tourism, science-technology, health care and education.
He noted that Thua Thien-Hue, which is one of the five provinces in the central key economic region, holds huge potential in developing tourism, industry, agriculture and the marine-based economy.
During the event, Hue suggested tapping the tourism potential based on market economic principles, as well as building special mechanisms to uphold local heritages and boost public-private partnership in relic restoration and upgrades.
The locality should outline a roadmap to embark on projects, especially the project: “Socio-economic development in Tam Giang-Cau Hai lagoon, the central province of Thua Thien-Hue until 2020,” which was approved by the government in 2009 and aims to build the lagoon into an ecological tourist area, he said.
He also suggested holding more thematic discussions on the development of the Chan May – Lang Co economic zone and the Tam Giang - Cau Hai lagoon to attract more investment.
Speaking at the conference, Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Nguyen Van Cao said the province will give priority to developing Hue into a “heritage” city with a high-class well-being and resort area.
In the coming time, Chan May-Lang Co will be connected with Hue, Da Nang, Chu Lai, Dung Quat, Nhon Hoi and Van Phong to create a regional key urban corridor which is a complex of seaports, resorts and innovative industry.
At the event, the provincial authorities presented certificates of investment to 16 investors who registered a total capital of more than 7.7 trillion VND (350 million USD) and signed six cooperation agreements with investors and partners.
The BIDV also inked an agreement to fund a 7 billion VND local tourism master plan, and signed seven other deals to provide funding worth over 4.55 trillion VND (206.8 million USD) for investment projects in the locality.
