It is also one of the best performers in foreign investment attraction, she said, noting that 38 countries and territories have come to invest 21.2 billion USD in Bac Ninh.
In particular, the province has taken strong and flexible moves in response to the COVID-19 pandemic last year so as to swiftly revitalise production and business activities and adapt to the new normal, Lan added.
Congratulating Bac Ninh on its substantial efforts and achievements, General Secretary Trong asked the province to continue upholding its glorious traditions so as to build an increasingly clean and strong Party organisation and political system and become an exemplary Party organisation of the entire nation.

The leader expressed his belief that the province’s Party organisation, administration, and people will stay united to step up reforms while achieving and surpassing the targets set at the 20th provincial Party Congress in order to secure sustainable development.
On this occasion, the Party chief and senior officials offered incense at Do Temple, a special national relic site dedicated to eight kings of the Ly Dynasty (1010 - 1225), and met with artisans of the Quan ho Bac Ninh folk songs - part of the representative list of the intangible cultural heritage of humanity./.
