The Department of Home Affairs of An Giang province has presented a paper on solutions to effectively implement the patriotic emulation movement to promote economic growth in An Giang province to the Ministry of Home Affairs.
Accordingly, the synchronous implementation of emulation movements has contributed to creating positive changes in the implementation of the province's socio-economic development goals.
The GRDP growth rate in the first 6 months of 2026 is estimated to reach 8.83%, ranking first in the Mekong Delta region; state budget revenue reached 16,520 billion VND, equal to 97.4% of the target for the first 6 months of the year and up 27.2% compared to the same period; total retail sales of goods and service revenue increased by 24.83%; export turnover increased by 13.86%.
The above results show that when the emulation movement is organized in the right focus, associated with the development requirements of the locality, it has truly become a driving force to promote economic growth and improve the effectiveness of state management.
Besides the achieved results, emulation and commendation work still has some limitations that need to be further overcome. Some emulation movements at the grassroots level have not developed evenly; the content and form of organization in some units are still lacking in creativity; the discovery, training and dissemination of advanced examples are not regular; the application of digital transformation in emulation and commendation work has not kept up with modern management requirements.
To continue to promote the role of emulation and commendation as a driving force to promote socio-economic development, An Giang province proposes that the Ministry of Home Affairs: Continue to improve institutions and guide the implementation of the Law on Emulation and Commendation and guiding documents in a synchronous direction, in accordance with the two-level local government model.
Accelerate the construction of a national digital database on emulation and commendation, connecting and interlinking with localities; support the deployment of shared digital platforms to improve management efficiency and reduce administrative procedures.
Strengthen the organization of training, professional development, experience sharing and popularizing good models and creative ways of doing things in emulation and commendation work between localities.
Practice in An Giang province shows that the patriotic emulation movement only truly promotes its effectiveness when it is closely linked to the development goals of the locality and the political tasks of each agency and unit. Emulation not only creates an atmosphere of action but also improves the effectiveness and efficiency of state management, promotes administrative reform, digital transformation, innovation and fosters resources to serve socio-economic development.
The connection between the emulation movement and development goals has created a deep spread, making positive contributions to the economic growth results of An Giang province in the first 6 months of 2026; creating momentum and creating a position to successfully implement socio-economic development tasks for the whole year 2026 and the 2026 - 2030 period.
