Solid foundation from synchronous infrastructure
Among the many outstanding marks of Quang Ninh, the evidence of breakthrough thinking and action in recent times is the story of economic restructuring. The province has quickly reduced industries that are heavily dependent on mineral resources, have a large impact on the environment, and promote industries with high technology content, circular economy, environmental friendliness and sustainability.

Specifically, over the past decade, Quang Ninh has reviewed and identified opportunities and challenges, thereby planning, reporting to the central government and synchronizing solutions to attract investment to the province. Up to now, Quang Ninh is forming 5 economic zones with a total area of 375,171 hectares and 10 industrial parks with a total area of 3,913 hectares. These economic zones and industrial parks are expanding and developing day by day, gradually becoming large-scale industrial production, logistics and service centers, making an important contribution to GRDP growth.
In particular, the province is prioritizing investment and development of two coastal economic zones, Van Don and Quang Yen, to become multi-sector, multi-field coastal economic zones, entertainment areas, high-class sea and island tourism , comprehensive services; international trade gateways, creating unique, different, modern products with high quality, brand names, and international competitiveness; green urban areas, smart, modern seaports and services, attracting high-tech processing and manufacturing projects, clean industry, smart industry, supporting industry, trade, etc.
To prepare for this route, with its own attractiveness, advantages in geographical location and sea and islands, on the basis of the overall development plan, Quang Ninh has devoted huge resources to investing in many important and dynamic infrastructure projects such as: International Airport, Ao Tien High-class Port, Riverside Road, and many other important projects all connected to the expressway axis along Ha Long - Van Don - Mong Cai province, creating a chain of modern and synchronous projects. Van Don coastal economic zone has attracted 63 investment projects, including 3 FDI projects and 60 domestic projects with a total investment capital of 13.9 million USD and nearly 90,000 billion VND. Meanwhile, in Quang Yen coastal economic zone, it has attracted 15 investment projects using non-budgetary capital with a total investment capital of over 16,000 billion VND.

Meanwhile, at the 3 border gate economic zones including Mong Cai, Hoanh Mo - Dong Van and Bac Phong Sinh, with the special nature of being located in the economic corridor of Kunming (China) - Hanoi - Hai Phong - Mong Cai - Fangcheng (China)... These 3 economic zones are invested and built to become multi-industry border gate economic and trade centers; comprehensive urban areas with modern and unique architectural spaces; gateways for exchange of activities, international trade transit and important trading hubs, places to attract and promote investment and business activities on the basis of the synchronous inter-border gate system of Quang Ninh and the key economic region of the North.
For 10 existing industrial parks such as Dong Mai, Song Khoai, Viet Hung, Cai Lan, Texhong Hai Ha, Hai Yen... the average occupancy rate has reached nearly 60%. Here, it is the production and business location of nearly 200 projects, with a total registered investment capital of nearly 9.3 billion USD and over 50,000 billion VND, with a total workforce of about 42,000 people. Each year, products from these industrial parks have contributed greatly to the province's economy with an average growth rate of over 20%; initially forming a large-scale industrial chain with international competitiveness such as: High-tech textiles, automobile manufacturing, electric vehicles, mechanical engineering, electrical and electronic equipment assembly... becoming the main growth drivers of Quang Ninh in recent times.
According to the Quang Ninh Provincial Planning for the period 2021-2030, with a vision to 2050 approved by the Prime Minister, in addition to the existing 5 economic zones and 10 industrial parks, Quang Ninh will have 13 more industrial parks located in key areas, with favorable locations and synchronous infrastructure. With the goal of attracting investment in technical infrastructure for these industrial parks, Quang Ninh is currently actively directing relevant departments, branches, sectors and local authorities to focus on reviewing the planned land fund, thereby building a list of investment attraction projects, and strategic orientations to attract investors to implement investment in technical infrastructure construction.

Thus, in general, it can be seen that Quang Ninh owns a relatively diverse, systematic and complete planning and infrastructure of economic zones and industrial parks, meeting all investment needs associated with the sea, border gates to high-tech industrial centers of the country. Quang Ninh has a solid foundation to promote economic sectors and fields related to high-tech manufacturing, clean industry, smart industry, supporting industry, and trade, which are the current development trends of the world.
Decisive action from the beginning of the term
The Resolution of the 16th Provincial Party Congress sets the target that in the 2026-2030 period, the average GRDP growth rate will reach 12%/year, in which the proportion of processing and manufacturing industry in GRDP will reach over 18%, the proportion of digital economy in GRDP will reach 30%... maintaining high and stable economic growth momentum in the long term. In particular, the main driving force for development and creating a strong breakthrough in productivity, quality, efficiency, adaptability, resilience and competitiveness of the local economy will be science, technology and innovation, digital transformation...

To facilitate investment attraction, the province will continue to promote administrative reform, improve the investment and business environment; build comprehensive, interconnected, synchronous and modern digital and information technology infrastructure; cooperate in building data capacity, applying artificial intelligence, public administration according to goals based on technology and digital platforms... to build Quang Ninh into one of the pioneering provinces in applying and developing science and technology, innovation, digital transformation, and being typical in administrative reform.

In particular, make the most of the incentive mechanisms and policies that Quang Ninh province is enjoying to effectively and selectively attract smart, high-tech, environmentally friendly industrial projects with high added value, modern management, efficient use of fuel, resources, land, and make great contributions to budget growth, in which, focusing on developing mainly industries in economic zones and industrial parks. Prioritize the allocation of sufficient resources from the budget for tasks and plans for the development of economic zones and industrial parks annually in accordance with legal regulations; ensure that public investment is the leader, activating all legal resources of society, especially through the form of public-private partnerships...
On the basis of the tradition of innovation, the achievements gained and the motivation from the economic zones and industrial parks, Quang Ninh will continue to use "old thinking and actions" in the face of "not-new" advantages and resources to create sustainable driving forces for rapid and sustainable economic development.
