The third quarter of 2025 marks a particularly important period as Lao Cai officially operates a two-tiered local government model following the reorganization of administrative units. In the context of both consolidating the organizational structure and implementing socio-economic development tasks, the province has achieved many positive results. Economic sectors have maintained stable growth, the investment and business environment continues to improve, and investment in key infrastructure has been accelerated.

The socio-cultural sector has many bright spots, especially in education, healthcare, and poverty reduction. National defense and security, and social order and safety are ensured; foreign affairs and cross-border economic cooperation have seen many positive developments.
In particular, the organizational structure after the merger has been basically stabilized, administrative discipline has been strengthened, and the spirit of innovation and high determination of the entire political system has contributed to creating a new momentum in development.
Regarding the implementation of socio-economic development targets compared to Resolution No. 08/NQ-HĐND dated July 8, 2025, and Resolution No. 17/NQ-HĐND dated July 31, 2025, of the Provincial People's Council, out of 25 assigned targets, 3 targets have been completed 100% of the plan; 12 targets have reached over 70% of the plan; 6 targets have reached under 70% of the plan; and the remaining 4 targets are for evaluating the results for the whole year.
Specifically, the results of implementing some socio-economic indicators for the first nine months of 2025 are as follows: GRDP growth rate is estimated at 7.38%, ranking 4th out of 9 in the Northern Midlands and Mountains region; industrial production value is estimated at VND 51,755 billion, an increase of 10.8% compared to the same period in 2024, reaching 69.01% of the plan.

The strong growth in both domestic and international tourists last month affirmed that Lao Cai continues to be a leading attractive destination in the Northwest region – a place that combines magnificent natural landscapes, unique cultural identity, and many competitive experiential tourism products.
Total state budget revenue in the past nine months reached VND 13,547 billion, equaling 100% of the central government's projected target, and increasing by 30% compared to the same period in 2024.

At the conference, delegates focused on discussing difficulties and obstacles such as compensation and land clearance for several large projects; the urgent need to adjust commune-level and provincial-level planning; and the issue of decentralization and delegation of authority to communes in carrying out investment and construction procedures for projects, etc.
Quickly address the consequences of natural disasters.
Due to the influence of the remnants of Typhoon No. 10 (Bualoi), from the night of September 28th to October 1st, heavy rains and floods caused very serious damage to people, property, infrastructure, and production in the province; initial estimated damage is approximately 2,750 billion VND.
Subsequently, due to the influence of the weakened low-pressure system from Typhoon No. 11, the province of Lao Cai experienced moderate to heavy rainfall, causing large-scale landslides on many transportation routes.
Speaking at the conference, Major General Cao Minh Huyen, Director of the Provincial Police, stated that although the damage from the two recent floods was significant, the number of casualties was noticeably lower compared to previous years. This was thanks to the decisive, coordinated, and proactive efforts of all forces, especially in the areas of public awareness campaigns, mobilization, and resolute relocation of people from areas at risk of landslides.
The Director of the Provincial Police provided some very noteworthy data: 111 households with 452 people, located in 15 communes and wards, experienced landslides between 30 minutes and 20 hours after being evacuated, completely burying their homes. Thus, it was thanks to the proactive and decisive efforts in mobilizing and resolutely relocating people from high-risk areas that significant human losses were avoided. This is valuable experience in disaster prevention and control.
At the conference, the Standing Committee of the Provincial People's Committee continued to direct all levels and sectors to focus on quickly addressing the consequences of the floods; using the provincial resources allocated for the right purposes and ensuring effectiveness so that people can quickly stabilize their lives and restore production.
Further efforts are needed to achieve comprehensive success in the tasks for 2025.
In his concluding remarks at the conference, Comrade Tran Huy Tuan, Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee and Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee, emphasized: With only a short time remaining in 2025, agencies, units, and localities need to focus intensely on comprehensively completing all targets and tasks set for the entire year.
