HÀ NỘI — Leaders of the Mekong Delta province of Vĩnh Long pledged to work with enterprises during a gathering with local businesspeople last Friday.
Vice Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Lê Quang Trung said the province would issue clear guidance on new policies to facilitate businesses’ operations, encourage business households to switch their status to enterprises and hold regular dialogues with them to clear any issues.
To improve provincial competitiveness, a public administrative centre would be put into operation this year.
He asked firms to pay attention to environmental protection, the lives of and interests of workers and social welfare programmes in the province.
The province saw 351 newly-established firms with total registered capital of more than VNĐ3 trillion (US$130.4 million) last year. Total investment for social development surpassed VNĐ13 billion.
In 2019, Vĩnh Long will focus on restructuring its economy in tandem with renewing the growth model and improving growth quality and labour output.
It will take measures to restructure agriculture along with new rural development, build a manufacturing and consumption chain for key farm produce and call for infrastructure investment in industrial zones. — VNS
