(HBO) – Looking back at the first quarter of 2023, it can be seen that the Executive Committee of the Cao Phong district Party Organisation and the Standing Board of its Party Committee focused on directing the drastic implementation of political tasks, while the local socio-economic situation was basically stable and posted growth over the same period last year. Such favourable development will help Cao Phong complete its goals set for 2023, emphasised Ha Van Di, Secretary of the district Party Committee.

According to the orientation of the local Party Committee, 2023 is the year of reviewing and evaluating the mid-term outcomes of implementing the Resolution issued by the 28th Congress of the district’s Party Organisation and a five-year socio-economic development plan for 2021-2025.
Among its key solutions, the district prioritises mobilising resources for economic recovery and development, particularly the improvement of the local business climate and the effective and drastic implementation of its new-style rural building programme.
Statistics show that in the first three months of this year, Cao Phong welcomed about 125,000 tourists and earned some 70 billion VND (2.98 million USD) in tourism revenue, up 14.84% year-on-year.
Ha Van Di, Secretary of the district Party Committee, said to drive tourism development, Cao Phong has concertedly deployed solutions, prioritising investment in infrastructure building and investment attraction. It houses a number of State-funded projects costing over 400 billion VND, and eight non-state budget projects worth more than 800 billion VND. Prominent among them are resort tourism projects in the two communes of Binh Thanh and Thung Nai, which promise to create a breakthrough for the local tourism development.
Towards the goal of becoming a new-style rural district by 2025, the district has so far recorded seven out of its nine communes meeting the criteria. Its industry - handicraft production and trade – service have maintained good results, while its implementation of national target programmes has been on schedule. Social security, defence-security, and social order have also been guaranteed./.
