In particular, the city has set a high political determination, striving to reach the finish line 5 years ahead of the whole country, so completing the goals of the Program is very important. This requires the city's mountainous districts, including Ba Vi, to focus on leadership, direction, and implementation of solutions to complete the targets according to the plan.

Regarding the tasks in the coming time, comrade Nguyen Nguyen Quan requested relevant units of the district to focus on disbursing capital for projects that have been allocated; for projects that are behind schedule, it is necessary to clarify the causes in order to have timely solutions to remove difficulties and obstacles. Thereby contributing to the effective implementation of the National Target Program on Socio-Economic Development in Ethnic Minority and Mountainous Areas for the period 2021-2030.
