Hanoi capital targets rapid, sustainable development

Hanoi (VNA) – Hanoi expects to develop rapidly and sustainably towards a green, smart, modern city with high competitiveness in the country and the region by 2025.

The target was set in a draft action programme on the implementation of the resolution of the 17th Congress of the municipal Party Organisation for the 2020-2025 tenure, which was delivered at a preparatory session of the congress on October 11.

Hanoi will also work to improve the leadership and combat capacity of the municipal Party Committee, and build a pure, strong and typical political system, while completing the target of industrialisation.

Its per capita gross regional domestic product (GRDP) is set to climb to 8,300-8,500 USD by 2025, 12,000-13,000 USD by 2030, and 36,000 USD by 2045, according to the draft action programme.

By 2045, the capital city is projected to have high living standards, comprehensive and sustainable socio-economic-cultural development, and international competitiveness.

Chu Ngoc Anh, member of the Party Central Committee, Deputy Secretary of the municipal Party Committee and Chairman of the Hanoi People’s Committee, said the resolution must be implemented synchronously, continuously and drastically, with specific solutions.

Regarding the feedback on draft documents to be presented at the 13th National Party Congress, Nguyen Van Phong, head of the municipal Party Committee’s information and education board, said opinions have been collected from 2,360 Party organisations at different levels.

The draft documents have been prepared thoroughly, seriously and scientifically, matching the latest situation, according to the report collecting the opinions.

The 17th Congress of the municipal Party Organisation officially opened on October 12, and is scheduled to conclude one day later./.
