To achieve sustainable economic development, Mai Chau township will invest in building modern and synchronous infrastructure; reasonable labour structure, diversifying jobs, contributing to improving the people's material and spiritual life as well as ensuring national defence – security. The locality will build a strong political system, a contingent of cadres and civil servants with firm political spirit, professional skills and management capacity which meet the requirements of tasks in the new situation.
Implementing the resolution, from 2023 - 2025, the province will assist Mai Chau district in completing a project on adjustment and expansion of the general planning with a scale of 1/5000 for Mai Chau township by 2030, with a vision to 2040. The locality will effectively exploit available strengths, focusing on meeting criteria and standards of a four-tier urban area, especially building and upgrading the technical infrastructure network.
