Quang Ninh has focused on the participation of the entire political system and organizations and individuals to resolutely and effectively implement the Government's instructions on tasks and solutions to remove difficulties and obstacles, and promote disbursement of public investment capital. On February 6, 2025, the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee issued Notice No. 1488-TB/TU on accelerating the progress of key projects. Immediately after that, the Provincial People's Committee issued Notice No. 31/TB-UBND dated February 11, 2025, assigning Vice Chairmen of the Provincial People's Committee to direct the handling and resolution of difficulties and obstacles of each project. The Chairman and Vice Chairmen of the Provincial People's Committee chaired the work with relevant sectors, localities and units to resolve and remove specific obstacles related to each project. In which, units are required to focus on promoting the disbursement of public investment capital from the beginning of the year, investors and local People's Committees develop disbursement plans for each month and quarter for each project.

In the first quarter of 2025, the Provincial People's Committee issued many documents directing the resolution of long-standing difficulties and problems related to the source of materials for leveling and site clearance. Notably, it issued a set of unit prices for compensation for assets attached to land when the State reclaims land in the province, paying attention to directing the recovery of advances, final settlement, and project finalization... In particular, the province has resolved difficulties in leveling materials, specifically: Announcing information on 14 areas of land and rock exploitation for leveling materials with a total reserve of tens of millions of m3; granting licenses to regulate excess land and rock at construction investment projects for projects in the area; speeding up the progress of investment procedures, minerals, environment and other related procedures for Duc Son mine, Dong Trieu city. Currently, the province is also continuing to review and propose solutions to existing problems, implementing the next steps for the mines in Dong Trieu and Uong Bi to ensure current regulations. Up to now, the shortage of filling materials in key projects has been basically resolved, such as: The riverside road connecting Ha Long - Hai Phong expressway to Dong Trieu city, the section from Provincial Road 338 to Dong Trieu city (phase 1); the road connecting Van Don - Mong Cai expressway to Van Ninh port... Thereby creating a premise to promote the disbursement of public investment capital in the following months of 2025.

According to data from the State Treasury of Region III, the capital plan for 2025 of Quang Ninh province is currently VND 13,002 billion, VND 1,096 billion higher than the plan assigned by the Provincial People's Council at the beginning of the year (VND 11,906 billion). In the first months of the year, investors focused on implementing the payment and settlement of the capital plan for 2024, while focusing on refunding the remaining advances transferred to 2024; implementing the selection of contractors for newly started projects. In addition, a number of projects had to be temporarily suspended according to the Central Government's policy of restructuring the apparatus (70 projects with a capital plan of VND 399.7 billion), accounting for 5.9% of the total capital plan of 13 localities (VND 6,797 billion). Up to now, localities have proactively developed plans to adjust capital plans from the above projects to other projects to ensure that all capital that must be adjusted due to suspension is used up (the total number of adjusted projects is expected to be 67 projects, mainly in the fields of transportation, health, and education). The adjustment is under the authority of the locality; only a number of projects under the national target program must seek the opinion of the Provincial People's Committee on the list before implementation, including: Mong Cai 1 project, capital plan of 10 billion VND; Ba Che 2 projects with capital plan of 19.2 billion VND; Co To 1 project with capital plan of 19.6 billion VND.

2025 is the final year of implementing the medium-term public investment plan for the 2021-2025 period and the 5-year socio-economic development plan, a year of great significance in creating breakthroughs and positive changes in implementing the goals of the socio-economic development plan and public investment plan. In order to strive to disburse the 2025 capital plan with the highest results, Quang Ninh continues to promote responsibility, focus on leadership, direction, operation, and drastic, synchronous, timely, and effective implementation of tasks and solutions to ensure the progress of public investment disbursement, contributing to socio-economic development in the area, and completing the targets set by the province.
