Many practical policies to improve people's lives.

Alongside the task of economic development, over the years, Quang Ninh province has always attached great importance to social security and welfare, regularly issuing practical policies to better care for the health, living conditions, education, and employment of its people.

Over the years, in addition to a series of policies aimed at ethnic minorities, mountainous and island communities, and policies for vulnerable groups and families of those who have rendered meritorious services to the revolution, the province has issued policies that are appropriate to the characteristics of each region and the practical realities of each period. Among these, the province has continuously implemented policies to support education , ensuring learning opportunities for all students in all regions of the province. A recent example is the Provincial People's Council's Resolution No. 86/2025/NQ-HĐND, issued on November 14, 2025, on the policy of supporting milk provision at schools for preschool and primary school students during the 2025-2030 period. Accordingly, from March 20, 2026, 100% of preschool and primary schools in the province, regardless of whether they are public or private, have implemented this resolution.

All preschool and primary school children attending educational institutions in the province are eligible for this policy, based on the consent of parents or guardians. The support level is 110ml/child for nursery children; 180ml/child for kindergarten and primary school students. The number of support days per year is based on the number of days of in-person schooling, but not exceeding 175 days/school year. The cost of purchasing milk is 100% funded by the provincial budget.

The policy will be implemented until December 31, 2030, with a total estimated resource of approximately 1,725 ​​billion VND; on average, over 200,000 children and students will benefit each year. In 2026 alone, the province will allocate nearly 321 billion VND to localities to implement the program.

The school milk program goes beyond simply improving children's nutrition; it also spreads a profound humanitarian message: "Every child has the right to comprehensive care, development, and the nurturing of their dreams." The program has received widespread support and joy from the local community. Ms. Choong Thi Hoa (Hoanh Mo commune), whose child attends Hoanh Mo Kindergarten, happily stated: "Every day, my child receives a box of milk from the school to drink at school. Not only does it supplement their nutrition, but it also encourages them to be happier and more enthusiastic about going to school each day. I am very pleased and grateful for the province's truly meaningful policies."
