Mr. Van Anh Tuan - Secretary of Nui Thanh District Party Committee said that exactly 50 years ago, on March 24, 1975, all over the villages in the southern part of Quang Nam province were filled with flags and flowers and indescribable joy when the homeland was completely liberated; from then on, people followed the offensive and uprising of our army and people to completely liberate the South and reunify the country on April 30, 1975.

The southern region of Quang Nam faced many difficulties due to the heavy consequences of war. In December 1983, Nui Thanh district was established on the basis of separation from Tam Ky district. At that time, the infrastructure was still difficult.

By 2003, Quang Nam province was assigned by the Party and State to build the first Open Economic Zone in the country. Chu Lai - Nui Thanh was quickly built and developed into a key economic zone of the Central region. The advantage of having a seaport, airport, railway, and road has created conditions for Chu Lai - Nui Thanh to affirm that it has enough conditions for integration and development. After 50 years of complete liberation of the homeland, along with the development of Chu Lai Open Economic Zone, the appearance of Nui Thanh villages has improved, gradually becoming the urban center of southern Quang Nam.

From a purely agricultural district, Nui Thanh has transformed its agricultural economic structure to develop industry, services, and trade as key economic sectors. Up to now, Nui Thanh district has 5 industrial parks, 3 industrial clusters with 142 enterprises investing more than 62,140 billion VND, creating jobs for more than 30,000 workers.

Nui Thanh has grown strongly, becoming a dynamic economic zone and key industrial zone of Quang Nam. In 2024, the total production value will reach more than 88,400 billion VND; of which, industry - construction accounts for 76.8%, services account for 15.1%.
