From the perspective of Hai Phong's urban spatial development orientation, adjusting the boundaries to expand Hong Bang district is consistent with the city's overall urban development orientation. According to Resolution No. 45-NQ/TW dated January 24, 2019, of the Politburo on building and developing Hai Phong City until 2030, with a vision to 2045, "researching and expanding urban space" is identified as one of the key priorities.

This adjustment will help expand the district's development space, reduce pressure on infrastructure and population density in the existing inner city area; create a foundation for developing Hong Bang into a green, civilized, and modern commercial and service urban area; maintain the district's leading position and role in the socio -economic development of the city; and contribute to building Hai Phong into a modern industrial city and a key maritime economic hub of the country.
