Hanoi (VNA) – The northern province of Bac Giang will continue improving its business environment and strive to secure its position in the top five most competitive cities and provinces in the nation, according to the Director of the Provincial Department of Planning and Investment Bui Thi Thu Thuy.

Thuy said the locality will focus on removing bottlenecks and barriers to facilitate investment attraction and socioeconomic development, adding limitation in the planning work and management of resources, environment, construction and labour will be also given due attention.

According to Thuy, the province will effectively carry out master plans that help shape up new development space while moving to train human resources to meet the requirements of the market.

Resources will be mobilised to create breakthroughs in economic infrastructure, with a focus given to the development of transport infrastructure that help promote connectivity with ports, airports and national highways. In the meantime, the province will develop industrial infrastructure, urban infrastructure and social infrastructure to lure investment and turn itself into a centre of development of the region and sub-region.

Bac Giang will enhance support for investors in tackling challenges and difficulties while operating in the locality. Accordingly, regular meetings and dialogues will be organised so that local authority will have a deeper insight into the firms’ problems and develop rational solutions.

As part of the efforts to form a sound, green and safe working and living environment that meet the need of investors as well as domestic and foreign experts, Bac Giang will pay due regard to advanced logistics, banking, customs, cartering, entertainment and healthcare services at industrial parks and clusters. Those are bold steps to create a green and sustainable industrial ecosystem that contributes to improving the Provincial Green Index (PGI).

With an index point of 72.8, Bac Giang moved up 29 places to the 2nd in the Provincial Competitiveness Index (PCI) ranking in 2022. The result was a vivid illustration of the province’s progress in business climate improvement./.
