In his report to the scientific conference, Member of the Party Central Committee, Secretary of An Giang Provincial Party Committee Nguyen Tien Hai said that An Giang province is facing a historic opportunity to promote its role as a strong marine economic center of the country, becoming a dynamic economic region.
With an area of over 9,888km2 , the province has all the elements of "plain - mountains - sea - islands - border", with great potential for high-tech agriculture, marine economy, border trade economy, logistics, tourism and smart urban areas, especially high-quality marine tourism.
With a population of nearly 5 million people, leading the Mekong Delta region, it not only creates a large domestic consumer market but also attracts more domestic and foreign investment capital.
An Giang has a particularly important geostrategic position, with a sea area of over 63,000 km2 , a coastline of over 200 km, a border with the Kingdom of Cambodia of nearly 148 km, convenient for international trade. The province has a developed urban system, Phu Quoc special zone, Long Xuyen - Chau Doc - Rach Gia - Ha Tien dynamic cluster; there are 2 airports connecting the country and the world. This is home to the Kinh, Khmer, Cham, Hoa ethnic communities..., with many unique traditional cultural features.
During the past term, under the leadership of the Party Central Committee, the close direction of the Provincial Party Executive Committee, the flexible and effective management of the Provincial People's Committee, the strong participation and high determination of the entire political system, and the consensus and support of the people and businesses, the two provinces of An Giang and Kien Giang achieved and exceeded 31/40 targets of the Congress Resolution for the 2020-2025 term.
In particular, the province has overcome many difficulties after the COVID-19 pandemic, the socio-economic situation has recovered well and has many improvements. The economic structure has shifted in a positive direction. The proportion of trade and services in GRDP is increasing.
The economic growth in the first 6 months of 2025 of An Giang province after the merger is over 8.12% (An Giang is one of 17 provinces with a growth rate of over 8%). Urbanization is strongly developing in areas such as Chau Doc, Phu Quoc, Rach Gia, Long Xuyen...
Member of the Party Central Committee, Secretary of An Giang Provincial Party Committee Nguyen Tien Hai delivered a report to introduce the workshop.
An Giang province has achieved positive results in implementing three strategic breakthroughs, especially in building connecting infrastructure. The basic planning system has created new opportunities and development spaces. Cultural, social, educational, health and social security issues have received regular attention and have significantly improved in quality. Social order and safety have been ensured; national defense, security, sovereignty over islands and borders have been maintained; foreign relations have been expanded.
The work of building and rectifying the Party and the political system has received regular attention, especially the effective implementation of the Central Committee's policy on streamlining the apparatus and administrative units, building grassroots party organizations and improving the quality of cadres and party members.
However, the general situation of the province still has certain limitations and difficulties. In the last term, the province still failed to achieve 9 targets set by the resolution. The economic structure has shifted slowly, unsustainably, and the quality is not high. The proportion of the agricultural, forestry and fishery sector in the economic structure has shifted very slowly...
In the face of the above situation, the draft political report submitted to the An Giang Provincial Party Congress for the 2025-2030 term sets the goal for 2030: An Giang will be a fairly developed province in the country; a strong marine economic center of the country. Phu Quoc Special Zone will reach international stature. Rach Gia will be a political - administrative, commercial - service, general and specialized center.
The Long Xuyen - Chau Doc - Rach Gia - Ha Tien quadrangle is the driving force for industrial development, logistics, cultural and ecological tourism, a center for research and development of varieties and production of high-tech agriculture, aquaculture, and medicinal herbs; border economic development, a hub for trade and cooperation with the Kingdom of Cambodia; a synchronously developed socio-economic infrastructure system, adapting to climate change; digital transformation in the education and health systems is among the top in the country.
Traditional cultural values are preserved and promoted; national defense and security are maintained; foreign affairs are proactive and open; social order and safety are stable; social security is ensured, and people's material and spiritual lives are improved.
