On October 20, the Dak Lak Provincial People's Committee informed that the growth rate of gross regional domestic product (GRDP - according to the comparison price in 2010) of the province is not reaching the growth scenario set by the province. In particular, the service and construction sectors were below the plan.
Meanwhile, the production and business situation of most sectors and fields has increased (compared to the same period in 2024) but has not met expectations.
Especially in the field of investment that has not met the requirements, the total social investment capital is estimated not to reach the 2025 plan.
The progress of public investment disbursement has not met requirements, the disbursement rate is still lower than the national average.
By early October 2025, the whole province had disbursed nearly VND5,000 billion in public investment capital (total VND13,000 billion), reaching more than 38% of the plan.
The main reason is that compensation and site clearance are facing many difficulties. The transition to manage projects and public investment plans in the process of arranging and organizing the local government apparatus at both levels takes a lot of time.
There are times when prices of construction materials increase, affecting the construction progress of enterprises.
The social housing construction target in 2025 is forecast to not meet the set plan, which may affect the growth target of the construction sector. Thereby, affecting the efficiency of capital use and the progress of projects.
Faced with the urgent situation, leaders of Dak Lak Provincial People's Committee assigned and arranged a schedule for field surveys at a series of key transport projects in the area. This is a move to urge and direct strongly the disbursement of public investment capital.
At the Khanh Hoa - Buon Ma Thuot expressway construction site (VND 3,078 billion has been disbursed, reaching 71.35%) Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Truong Cong Thai has requested departments, branches and localities to quickly remove procedures. In particular, the units are urgently completing the site clearance work.
The project investor's representative needs to speed up the construction progress, urge construction contractors to complete the work before the deadline of December 19, 2025. Since then, the project has been put into use to serve traffic to ensure technical and quality.
