In addition to measures to reform administrative procedures and improve business and investment climate, Bac Giang will focus on adjusting development planning of industrial clusters, including the consideration of the establishment of several industrial zones in rural areas.
Attention will be also paid to upgrading transport infrastructure and coordinating in a project on the construction of a highway connecting Hanoi capital and the northern mountainous province of Lang Son via Bac Giang, Son added.
