Building a special resolution for the development of Dong Nai province

According to comrade Vu Hong Van, currently, there are 10 provinces and cities in the country that have had the National Assembly issue a pilot Resolution on specific policies and mechanisms for development. Dong Nai province has a large population, a large economy, and an important strategic position in the Southeast region, adjacent to Ho Chi Minh City, but still does not have specific policies and mechanisms on investment, land, and transport infrastructure.

Therefore, Dong Nai province recommends that the General Secretary and the Politburo approve the policy for the Government to summarize and evaluate the results of implementing specific mechanisms and policies as a basis for developing a Resolution of the National Assembly on piloting a number of specific mechanisms and policies for the development of Dong Nai province in a number of areas similar to Resolution 98 applied to Ho Chi Minh City so that the two localities have the same mechanisms and policies to attract investment and build inter-regional transport infrastructure.

At the same time, the province proposed that the Government pay attention to approving synchronous policies and mechanisms for Dong Nai province's free trade zone associated with Long Thanh Airport and Cai Mep Ha free trade zone associated with seaports to connect the two free trade zones, supporting each other to compete with international free trade zones.

Proposal to approve the policy of adding the Ben Thanh - Suoi Tien Metro Line Extension Project to Dong Nai province and Long Thanh Airport to the list of urban railway projects piloting a number of specific mechanisms and policies according to Resolution No. 188/2025/QH15 (February 19, 2025) of the National Assembly.
