Over the past six decades, Vinh Phuc has developed from an agriculture-based to an industrial province – an automobile and motorbike manufacturing centre of the country, and a locality leading in the cause of industrialisation and modernisation.
In the 1997-2022 period, the province's average annual economic growth rate hit 13.27%. Last year, its per capita gross regional domestic product (GRDP) was estimated to reach 5,500 USD, ranking 5th in the Red River Delta region, and 9th in the nation.
Congratulating Vinh Phuc on its achievements, NA Chairman Hue asked the province to make efforts to better the building and rectification of the Party and the political system, develop effective models and methods in studying and following President Ho Chi Minh’s thought, morality and lifestyle as well as his teachings during his visits to the province.
Nine Party organisations honoured for outstanding achievements in 60 years of implementing Uncle Ho's teachings.

At the ceremony, Vice Secretary of the provincial Party Committee and Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Le Duy Thanh launched an emulation drive in the whole province./.
