Minister of Planning and Investment Nguyen Chi Dung raised a number of issues at the meeting. |
Pointing out some advantages, Minister Nguyen Chi Dung said that the development of the Resolution has a very clear legal and practical basis when, in addition to policies and orientations, there is currently a national master plan, regional plans, sectoral plans and even the city's own plans.
However, according to the Minister, there are still certain difficulties. Firstly, it is necessary to ensure that specific mechanisms and policies for localities, including Da Nang, must ensure consistency and unity in the general legal system of the whole country, but still have their own characteristics suitable to the characteristics of the locality to help exploit its full potential and strengths, resolve bottlenecks, thereby creating new momentum for rapid and breakthrough development.
"This must be identified as an opportunity for the city, and proposed policies should be focused, key, practical, effective and feasible," said Minister Nguyen Chi Dung.
The Minister suggested that first, Da Nang can focus on forming a financial center. There needs to be mechanisms and policies to form regional financial centers in Da Nang.
Regarding the story of semiconductor chips, the Minister said that this is also a trend and an opportunity, and it is necessary to pay attention to developing research centers, training human resources, and attracting talents and elites in this field. "Policies must be accurate and correct to achieve the goal" - the Minister emphasized.
Another issue mentioned by Minister Nguyen Chi Dung is that around Lien Chieu port, it can develop into a free trade center or a large transit port, which will certainly require specific mechanisms and policies.
The Minister requested that Da Nang city and relevant ministries and branches continue to coordinate closely to speed up the progress of building the draft Resolution dossier, trying to submit it to the National Assembly for consideration at the meeting next May, but emphasized that the most important thing is to ensure quality.
