Specifically, in the 2021-2030 period, the gross regional domestic product (GRDP) growth in the region is expected to reach 7-7.5% each year. In 2030, the figure is hoped to increase 2.3-3 times over that in 2020, with industry-construction accounting about 40.7% and service about 37.5%. Meanwhile, the per capita GRDP is projected to reach about 156 million VND (6,604 USD).

The rate of trained labourers is expected to reach about 75%, and the percentage of poor households hoped to reduce by 1-1.5% per year. More than 95% of the population are expected to join health insurance.
To this end, the action plan rolls out various solutions, including raising public consensus in implementing the plan, completing relevant institution and mechanisms, fostering regional connectivity, and promoting the sea-based economy.
Particularly, the plan underlines the need for the region to focus on developing maritime economic sectors in association with ensuring defence and security at sea as well as boosting sea-based tourism and services./.
