Chairman of Hau Giang Provincial People's Committee said: Hau Giang started as an agricultural province, with the lowest economic scale among the provinces in the Mekong Delta region. With the determination to renew thinking and create motivation for development, the Resolution of the Party Congress of Hau Giang province for the 2020-2025 term identifies four main economic pillars: industrialization, urbanization, agriculture and tourism. Currently, there are only 2 industrial parks in Hau Giang province, attracting 72 projects with a total investment capital of more than USD 3.8 billion and VND 74,000 billion, mainly focusing on seafood processings. In 2021, this 2 industrial parks contributed VND 1,000 billion to the state budget. With an orientation toward 2030, Hau Giang will establish 8 new concentrated industrial parks. To actualize this goal, Hau Giang province hoped that the business trip would help the province gain more experience in planning for industrial parks, urban areas and worker housing; and organizing effective investment promotions. Chairman of Hau Giang Provincial People's Committee emphasized: excellent practices in socio-economic development, especially in promotion and investment attraction in industrial parks in Bac Ninh, would be valuable experiences for Hau Giang province to study and implemente locally, contributing to the socio-economic development of the province.

In the coming period, Bac Ninh province determines that investment attraction must be associated with the orientation of economy understanding, high-tech production and sustainable development on the basis of selecting projects according to the criteria "2 less, 3 high": less usage of land and labor; high economic efficiency, high budget contribution and high technology participation. The province also focus on strengthening the connection between FDI enterprises and domestic enterprises, improving the localization rate in products and creating conditions for local industries to participate in the global value chain and industrial development are the main factors that support and turn Bac Ninh into an innovative and dynamic city in the future, and also a motivational province of the Hanoi Capital region.
