Strategic breakthrough for our country to enter a new era
Speaking, delegate Ta Van Ha - National Assembly Delegation of Quang Nam province agreed with the project investment policy with the spirit of doing, not retreating. This is the trend of national development, a preparation step, a strategic breakthrough for our country to enter a new era, an era of development.
Regarding the overall planning, delegates suggested a balance and harmony between the types of transport: railway, air, water and road. Because currently, there are areas and strips of the Central region where almost every province has an airport.
According to the delegate, when building the North-South high-speed railway, it is necessary to calculate the exploitation of airports, roads and waterways so that there is no waste.

Regarding the ability to balance capital sources, the delegate said that the project is set within the overall goal of becoming a modern industrialized country with an upper middle income by 2030. With the remaining 6 years, the ability to balance capital sources to both develop the economy and society, key projects, and national target programs is a difficult problem.
The delegate emphasized the need for a truly effective implementation and exploitation plan from the stage of selecting technology to appropriate divergence. In particular, it is necessary to pay attention to the implementation organization stage to avoid capital increase and future losses; avoid large investments but ineffective exploitation, having to spend money to compensate for losses.
Arouse national pride to contribute to national projects
Presenting his opinion on the discussion, delegate Duong Khac Mai - National Assembly Delegation of Dak Nong province requested the Government to provide more information on the ability to arrange and balance capital needs for the project to assess the payment capacity of the state budget and the endurance of the economy.
According to the Dak Nong delegation, the state budget still has many expenses, in addition to development expenses, there are also regular expenses, annual expenses according to medium-term plans, and expenses according to programs and projects.
Regarding implementation progress, delegates cited that urban railway routes have encountered many difficulties in recent times, leading to increased capital, causing completion time to be extended compared to the initially approved level.
Important national projects in recent times have also shown that, despite the application of specific policies on material mines and site clearance compensation, the supply of raw materials is still lacking, site clearance is slow, and does not meet the project's construction progress.
Therefore, delegates suggested that the Government should carefully study and evaluate each specific issue to find effective solutions to overcome these shortcomings in order to complete the project on schedule.

Regarding investment attraction, delegates suggested focusing on attracting domestic private investment. This would both help businesses have the opportunity to grow and develop, and also to receive and transfer foreign technology, maximize localization, and reduce dependence on foreign countries.
According to the delegate, the project is 100% public investment but that does not mean the State does all the work. The State places orders with capable private investors in related industries.
In addition, we should attract private enterprises to invest in building stations and other supporting services because they do very well. This has been done in the fields of aviation, road and waterway.
In mobilizing investment resources for the project, delegates suggested that it is necessary to consider mobilizing people's strength because the resources within the people are very large. If bonds are issued with an attractive enough interest rate, people will be willing to buy. If the budget is not enough, then borrow, but borrowing from the people is better than borrowing from abroad because the people will enjoy the profits. More importantly, it is also to arouse national pride to contribute to national projects.
Proposal to diversify and expand investment scope
Highly agreeing with the project investment policy, delegate Nguyen Quoc Han - National Assembly Delegation of Ca Mau province said that this project will create momentum for the country's development in the new period.
However, the delegate proposed that the National Assembly expand the scope of investment in the high-speed railway line on the North-South axis with the starting point being Lang Son and the ending point being Ca Mau Cape instead of from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City as proposed by the Government.
This is a project invested in the form of public investment. According to delegate Nguyen Quoc Han, because resources are limited, the investment can be divided into phases. For example, in the period from 2025-2035, the investment will be on the section from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City, and in the period from 2035-2040, the investment will be on the remaining sections.
Determining the scope of this investment, in addition to promoting synchronous socio-economic development throughout the country, also creates conditions for transporting goods, suitable for our country's export market.

According to the analysis of the delegate, our country stretches from North to South, from Lang Son to Ca Mau Cape. The two mountainous regions in the North and the Mekong Delta (MD) are the country's fences, but both develop very slowly, and the people's lives are extremely difficult.
Although there is a lot of potential, due to its remote location and difficult travel, even if the "red carpet" is rolled out, investors are not interested.
"In my opinion, the biggest bottleneck of these two regions is poor transport infrastructure, making it difficult to attract investors," the delegate acknowledged and emphasized the proposal to expand investment in the railway line. North-South Expressway to the two border areas of the country so that these places are "not the starting or ending point but the destination of investors"./.
