On July 11, in an exchange with Lao Dong Newspaper, Mr. Cao Dinh Huy - Director of the Department of Finance of Dak Lak province - said that the province has adjusted the general plan for the next phase, in order to clearly define the growth poles, creating a foundation to attract investment and effectively implement projects in the coming time.
According to Mr. Huy, planning work is always identified as a key factor, playing a role in orienting socio-economic development. Therefore, the Department of Finance has requested the People's Committees of communes and wards to urgently review and adjust the general planning of the locality to ensure synchronization and create favorable conditions for the implementation of investment projects. It is expected that the planning adjustment will be completed in the third quarter of 2026.
In parallel with that, the province also pays special attention to urging projects that have been introduced at the Investment Promotion Conference. The Provincial People's Committee has established a specialized working group to monitor, support and promote the implementation progress.
For 122 projects (3 projects awarded survey policies and 119 projects signed memorandums of understanding), the province has clearly assigned tasks to each department, sector and locality. In the first 30 days, we will work directly with businesses to listen, exchange, orient and remove difficulties and obstacles arising in the project implementation process," Mr. Huy said.
According to the Director of the Department of Finance, one of the issues that the business community is most concerned about today is administrative procedure reform. On that basis, the Department has advised the Provincial People's Committee to apply the "green channel" mechanism to projects that fully meet the conditions according to regulations.
According to this mechanism, the time to resolve procedures from receiving dossiers to meeting the conditions for commencement is shortened to about 35 days for suitable projects that have completed the necessary procedures. This is expected to create motivation, contribute to improving the investment and business environment and promote socio-economic development of the locality.
Mr. Huy emphasized that the private economic sector plays a particularly important role in the province's growth. Therefore, local authorities determine that they must accompany, support and create all favorable conditions for businesses to develop, instead of just relying on public investment resources.
Regarding tasks in the last months of 2026, Dak Lak province sets a goal to accelerate the disbursement of public investment capital, and at the same time drastically handle slow-progressing and prolonged backlog projects.
Currently, the whole province still has about 396 projects belonging to this group, of which 90 projects have been removed from difficulties and handled, the rest are being continuously reviewed and a roadmap for resolution is being developed to soon put the projects into implementation and promote investment efficiency," added the Director of the Department of Finance of Dak Lak province.
