HẢI PHÒNG — National Assembly Chairman Trần Thanh Mẫn on Wednesday asked Hải Phòng to encourage all economic sectors to invest in socio-economic and cultural projects, with the goal of transforming Hải Phòng into a livable, green, clean and beautiful city.

Speaking at the 18th meeting of the municipal 16th-tenure People’s Council (2021-2026), Mẫn lauded the northern port city for its notable achievements, with the gross regional domestic product growing by 10.32 per cent, ranking it fifth nationwide and first among the five centrally-run cities.

The total state budget revenue from the city exceeded VNĐ60.8 trillion (US$2.4 billion), up 34.77 per cent annually. Export turnover grew by 28.87 per cent year on year to $17.2 billion.

The municipal People’s Council was commended for strengthening democracy and strictly following the Party’s guidelines, as well as the laws and resolutions of the National Assembly (NA), the Government and the 16th municipal Party Congress.

Mẫn also urged all-level Party committees, authorities and organisations in the city to continue to implement the resolutions of the 13th National Party Congress and the Party Central Committee.

The city needs to identify its potential and advantages to foster development and achieve or surpass current targets, thereby contributing to the country’s fulfilment of the 2024 goals outlined in the NA’s resolution, he said.

He also required the city to promptly tackle obstacles during the implementation of the Politburo’s Resolution No 45 on building and developing Hải Phòng until 2030, with a vision to 2045 and the NA’s Resolution No. 35 on piloting several specific mechanisms and policies for the city's development.

Attention should also be paid to expediting the progress of public investment, infrastructure and socio-economic projects, especially those deemed critical, as well as preparations for Party congresses at all levels for the 2025-2030 tenure, toward the 14th National Party Congress and the election of deputies to the 16th NA and all-level People’s Councils in the 2026-2031 tenure, according to the top legislator.

During a separate working session with the Command of Military Region 3 the same day, Mẫn asked the military region to continue fully implementing the resolutions of the Central Military Commission, and military and defence tasks in 2024.

The command should also coordinate with central agencies based in the region and localities to well carry out national construction and defence tasks, monitor the situation and partner with local Party committees and authorities to prevent and effectively respond to natural disasters, fire and crimes, while continuing to build the local political base through mass mobilisation work, said Mẫn. — VNS
