The Government leader praised Binh Phuoc’s significant achievements, highlighting the province’s potential and its strategic position in connecting the Central Highlands and southern regions, as well as its advantages for agricultural development, especially in terms of industrial crops.

Binh Phuoc should further improve its business climate and pay due attention to infrastructural development, especially the 10 key projects mapped out in the resolutions of the Provincial Party Congress, in addition to properly dealing with social issues and preserving its cultural and revolutionary heritage, he said.

The PM urged Binh Phuoc to effectively implement the resolutions of the Party, National Assembly and Government with the spirit of mobilising and optimising resources to develop infrastructure, especially transport infrastructure.
