Presided over by PM Nguyen Tan Dung and his deputies, the Conference on implementing socio-economic development plan 2010 was organized in Hà Nội on January 6-7, drawing the presence of ministerial and local leaders.
The Government’s draft resolution on measures to realize the socio-economic development plan for 2010, including eight major solutions and 132 specific ones, was introduced by Permanent Deputy PM Nguyen Sinh Hung.
The conference was also featured with discussions and proposals on strategies for education development, agriculture and rural development, land management, transportation and other issues.
Three “economic jams” must be cleared in 2010
Concluding the event, PM Nguyen Tan Dung briefed major socio-economic achievements gained in 2009, such as positive economic growth rate (5.32%), industrial production value up 5.52%; agro-forestry and fisheries up 3%; services up 6.63%; and poverty household rate slashed down to 12.3%.
The Government chief pointed out three “economic jams” – poor transport infrastructure; troublesome administrative procedures; and weak human resource – which are all cleared within 2010.
He urged ministries and localities to spare no effort and make full use of all chances to complete socio-economic development goals in 2010, so as to pave the way for the stronger development in the following years.
