The highest goal of this policy is to streamline the apparatus, improve the effectiveness and efficiency of State management. Thereby, maximizing the potential and advantages of each locality, creating leverage for faster and more sustainable socio-economic development."
According to the Chief of the Party Central Committee Office Le Hoai Trung, Dak Lak province is located in the strategic center of the Central Highlands, with great potential for agriculture, tourism, especially multi-ethnic culture.
When Dak Lak merges with Phu Yen to become a new province, it will have a long coastline, rich marine resources and outstanding potential for island tourism. From there, a new unified entity will be formed with great combined advantages.
The new Dak Lak province has an area of over 1,809 km2, a population of over 3.3 million people and includes 102 administrative units at the commune level.
"From here, Dak Lak will no longer be the "co coffee capital", but also become a "destination for seas and mountains and forests". Including economic corridors connecting the Central Highlands with the sunny and windy Central Coast", added Chief of the Party Central Committee Office Le Hoai Trung.
