(Fatherland) - Mr. Tran Minh Khoa - Chairman of Phu Quoc City People's Committee shared about the drastic campaign to clean up and beautify Phu Quoc city, along with many community projects that are being urgently implemented, which will make big changes for the Pearl Island in the near future.
Currently, the city is accelerating the work of urban beautification and handling of road encroachment. So what specific plans has the city set out, and what are the goals, sir?
The city has been handling encroachment on sidewalks and pavements for a long time now, but there are still many issues that need to be further promoted. Under the direction of the City Leaders, the City Party Committee and the Committee, we must act more resolutely, more vigorously, and have solutions to adjust to the new situation.
Our motto is to work in a rolling manner. Accordingly, we have specific plans for each road and street. The core force is the city's urban order management team working with the wards and communes. When each street is clean, it will be handed over to the wards and communes for direct management. The wards and communes are responsible for strict management to avoid the situation of reoccupying the sidewalks, causing urban disorder and sloppiness. The spirit of the City is to work more resolutely and persistently, not to do it all in one day, to avoid the situation of kidnapping and abandoning the dish.

Phu Quoc City also plans to step up waste treatment, wastewater treatment systems and clean water supply projects. In the coming years, these projects will be thoroughly implemented to keep Phu Quoc attractive to tourists.
Phu Quoc's goal is to become a national and international tourist resort center, so the work of handling encroachment on sidewalks is extremely important. Along with that, it is necessary to promote cleaning and propaganda to raise awareness among the people. Here, not only the local people but also domestic and foreign tourists join hands with the government and the entire political system. Only then can we turn things around, so that as many meters of sidewalk in the city as possible will be returned, helping Phu Quoc city become more and more beautiful.
Phu Quoc is already beautiful, now we need to be determined to clean it up and make it more beautiful, and more sustainable.
According to the Plan to 2040, Phu Quoc city is oriented to become an island city; a high-quality tourism and resort service center with identity and attractiveness to domestic and international tourists. So, what is the issue that Phu Quoc considers most important in the current period to implement this plan?
With the desire to attract more domestic and foreign tourists to Phu Quoc as well as more people and businesses to Phu Quoc to live and settle down, the City considers health care and education as two important tasks that are put on top priority at present.
Chairman of Phu Quoc City People's Committee Tran Minh Khoa surveyed An Thoi on the morning of November 2.
In fact, the health care system is always one of the issues that tourists put on top at destinations. A tourist resort combined with a good health care system will create a synchronous factor for tourists to feel secure to enjoy and relax at the destination.
Besides, the education system in Phu Quoc is currently lacking to serve the people. Therefore, the city is calling for investment, combining state budget investment with private investment capital to create a complete education system to meet the needs of the people.
So what civil and public works are currently being implemented by the city together with investors?
Regarding healthcare, Phu Quoc has already had a plan and orientation. The city is attracting investment in the An Thoi and Bai Truong areas to create a modern, international-class hospital to meet the needs of tourists.
The red soil field in An Thoi is expected to be renovated into a sea square and public beach to serve residents and tourists.
Currently, the City is also clearing the red soil in the An Thoi area to create a public beach for the people and tourists. Parallel to the beach will be a sea square and a landscape axis to meet the needs of enjoyment. This is a very important task that the City and An Thoi ward have been implementing vigorously, so that in the near future, the beach will be cleaned up, and there will be no more encroachment on the beach causing a messy situation. In the coming time, we also call on businesses with passion and resources to help the city invest in a beautiful and classy beach.
Does the city expect that An Thoi beach, once completed, will attract a large number of domestic and foreign tourists, sir?
Currently, Phu Quoc from the North to the South of the island has luxury resorts, 5, 6 star resorts. In the An Thoi area alone, many projects have been put into operation. This is a very good highlight, especially the hotel and resort projects that Sun Group has invested in and are operating very effectively. Along with those products, the red soil of An Thoi has been transformed into a beach, which will help to synchronize and create a very good highlight for the people and tourists.
Hoang Hon Town in An Thoi, Phu Quoc is a successful example of synchronous and systematic infrastructure development, becoming a popular attraction for domestic and foreign tourists.
So, what are Phu Quoc's expectations for tourism in 2025, sir?
After the pandemic, the domestic and foreign economies were severely affected, leading to a decrease in the number of visitors to Phu Quoc. However, in 2024, the number of domestic visitors did not increase much, but foreign visitors increased very strongly. From the fourth quarter of 2024 to the first quarter of 2025, in the forecast and plan, we clearly saw a sharp increase in the number of international visitors to Phu Quoc from Eastern Europe, Central Asia, China, and neighboring countries such as Taiwan and Korea. This is a very good signal not only for Phu Quoc but also for the whole country.
Thanks for sharing!
