Chairwoman
of the Provincial People’s Committee Nguyen Huong Giang summarized: At the time
of re-establishment, Bac Ninh was a purely agricultural province, with low
economic and social starting points. Since the issuance of the Resolution 54
and Conclusion No. 13 of the Politburo, the province has actively coordinated
with the ministries, branches and localities in the Red River Delta region to
organize the implementation of tasks and solutions in order to successfully
achieve the common goal. Up to now, Bac Ninh has basically been an industrial
province in the direction of modernity, many socio-economic targets are in the
group of leading provinces and cities nationwide: The average economic growth
rate in the period 2005-2019 reached 14.7%/year; in the period 2005-2020
reached 13.95%/year; In 2021, the scale of GRDP increased to VND 133.6
trillion, accounting for 2.71% of the whole country’s GDP and ranked 8th out of
63 provinces and cities and 4th in the Red River Delta. The budget revenue in
the area increased sharply, reached VND 33,227 billion by 2021, more than 19
times higher than in 2005; is one of 14 provinces and cities that completed the
construction of new rural areas... Bac Ninh has become the growth pole of the
Northern key economic region, the Capital region, made important contributions
to the overall growth of the whole country, become a bright spot in the whole
country’s economic development. The technical infrastructure has been enhanced,
and the culture - society has obtained a lot of important results. The people’s
material and spiritual life is improved, the national defense is consolidated,
the security, political, social order and safety are maintained; the internal
affairs, anti-corruption and waste prevention have positive changes. The Party
and government building work have been strengthened, the political system has
been consolidated, and the people’s confidence has been enhanced.
Along
with the obtained results, the implementation of the Resolution still has some
limitations that need to be overcome, those are, the growth quality and
efficiency is still unstable, the economy depends on the FDI sector and export
of the electronics industry; The domestic auxiliary industry is small in scale
and has weak competitiveness. The service and trade sectors have not made a
breakthrough to increase the density, and there are no new factors to break
through. The progress of implementing the large and pervasive projects is still
slow. The investment in building the cultural, sport institutions, schools, and
amusement parks for employees is still asynchronous and small in scale. The
high-quality human resources, knowledge content, responsive technology,
professional and modern working skills are still lacking. The management of the
quantity of employees from other provinces and foreigners in the province faces
many difficulties...
The industry-construction sector accounts for 77.3% of the economic structure
Continuing
to affirm the region’s growth pole position, in order to improve the quality,
efficiency and sustainability of the economy, the Resolution of the 20th
Provincial Party Congress for the 2020-2025 term sets out the following
objectives: by 2030, build Bac Ninh as a city with a modern and high-tech
