After directly inspecting the construction progress of the S9 - Kim Mã, S11 - Văn Miếu, and S12 - Trần Hưng Đạo underground stations, Prime Minister Phạm Minh Chính commended the Hanoi Urban Railway Management Board, the contractors involved in the project, and all the officials, engineers, and workers who sacrificed their time and family reunions to maintain construction throughout holidays and Tet (Lunar New Year), contributing to accelerating the project's progress.
The Prime Minister urged the investor, consultants, contractors, and the team of officials, engineers, and workers to continue to improve their intelligence, capacity, skills, and labor productivity, making the utmost effort and accelerating further to complete the key objectives of the project as soon as possible, ensuring absolute safety, quality, and investment efficiency.
At a subsequent meeting with Hanoi city leaders and relevant ministries and agencies, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh emphasized the need to accelerate the investment and construction of the national and urban railway systems. Regarding the national railway system specifically, the Prime Minister outlined three key tasks. First, as the railway sector prepares to celebrate its 145th anniversary, it is necessary to learn from past experiences in railway construction and development in general, and urban railways in particular, avoiding wasted time, money, effort, and space.
Secondly, the industry needs to build railways and urban rail systems based on internal resources, which is fundamental, strategic, long-term, and decisive; external resources are important and provide breakthroughs. Thirdly, the industry needs to reduce costs and investments, thereby lowering product prices, increasing competitiveness, so that people can enjoy better products at lower costs and in less time.
