After Tet is the peak period of festivals associated with the start of the 2024 tourism season. Departments, branches and localities need to focus on management work so that activities take place in accordance with regulations, safely and healthily; at the same time, well implement solutions to stimulate tourism in the first months of the year and prepare early for sea tourism. At the end of February, the military handover ceremony will be held, so during this time, it is necessary to continue to pay attention to implementing well the activities to encourage and send off young people to join the army, and carefully prepare for the military enlistment festival.
After the successful conference to announce the Provincial Planning and Investment Promotion in 2023, 2024 will be the year with many large projects being implemented, especially the project to invest in construction and business of infrastructure of Bac Thach Ha Industrial Park (phase 1) with a total capital of nearly 1,600 billion VND by Vietnam Singapore Urban and Industrial Park Development Joint Stock Company (VSIP) striving to start construction in mid-April 2024. Therefore, the work of site clearance and accompanying and supporting investors in implementing the procedures and processes for project implementation requires the synchronous and drastic participation of all levels and sectors. Along with that, it is necessary to continue to closely follow the reality, focus on removing difficulties, and ensure the progress of implementing works and projects, especially key national projects such as: North-South Expressway Project and 500 kV transmission line circuit 3 Quang Trach - Pho Noi section through Ha Tinh.

Unite, make efforts, promote responsibility, promote intelligence, creativity and the spirit of daring to think, daring to do, create strength, motivation, strive to complete the best tasks right from the first months of the year, creating momentum for the acceleration, breakthrough, successful implementation of goals and targets for 2024, the 5-year plan 2021-2025 as well as the next stage.
