Mr. Nguyen Nhu Cong - Director of the Department of Finance informed that in the first 5 months of 2025, Quang Nam province's economy continued to record positive changes, maintaining growth momentum in a number of key areas such as industry, trade, and services.
However, budget collection was affected by the decline in production and business activities in some key areas; state budget expenditure increased, mainly focusing on regular expenditure tasks to ensure social security, maintain the operation of the state management apparatus, national defense and security.
The progress of disbursement of public investment capital is still slow, mainly due to problems with compensation, site clearance and lack of construction materials such as soil and sand. Business activities have shown signs of recovery in the number of new registrations, but the number of businesses withdrawing remains high.
Promoting disbursement of public investment capital
At the meeting, Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Le Van Dung highly appreciated the results of May and the first 5 months of 2025. Despite facing many difficulties, Quang Nam has achieved the set economic growth indicators, with the expectation that the second quarter will surpass the first quarter in many numbers. The Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee acknowledged the responsibility, drastic direction and urging of the tasks of the leaders of the Provincial People's Committee and departments and branches.

Quang Nam province has made great efforts to overcome difficulties and create favorable conditions for businesses to develop. Budget collection and public investment disbursement have achieved good results, although not as expected. The cultural, social and social security sectors have been vigorously implemented, maintaining political security.
However, Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Le Van Dung said there are still limitations in disbursing public investment capital, scarcity of construction materials and problems with site clearance.
Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Le Van Dung emphasized that we must be stronger in disbursing public investment capital, and cannot say that it cannot be done because of the merger. Strategic projects such as dredging and expanding Cua Lo channel, the 451ha area of THACO, projects of Hoiana, Hyosung... must complete site clearance and start construction on schedule.

Regarding the shortage of construction materials, provincial leaders requested to focus on and urge to thoroughly resolve problems according to the direction at previous meetings.
For contractors who abandon projects, departments and branches must consult and commit to handling them thoroughly. For national target programs, it is necessary to review and remove difficulties. The Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee requested to review the heads of departments and branches that caused delays in disbursing capital for national target programs and officials who have not fulfilled their assigned responsibilities, affecting progress.
The Department of Finance is assigned to study and implement Resolution 68 of the Politburo; ensure the transfer of new rural programs and poverty reduction from the district to the commune; whatever the commune does is strongly decentralized to the commune. Administrative reform must be fast, drastic, and synchronous, avoiding hassles for investors to contribute to achieving double-digit growth.

In the cultural and social fields, the education sector needs to actively implement two entrance exams for grade 10 and high school graduation, especially preparing facilities and classrooms for the new school year, to avoid being affected by the transition process in the arrangement and merger of administrative units.
Regarding health, the Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee directed the completion of electronic medical records, focusing on facilities and medicines, and promptly implementing them. Regarding social security, the request was to complete the elimination of temporary housing according to the set targets, especially for policy beneficiaries, and promote social housing...
