Difficult year 2020 ended
 
In 2020, the whole political system, business community and all people in the province made efforts to carry out the task of socio-economic development of the province. Measures to prevent and control Covid-19 were also taken seriously. At the same time, the province stepped up supporting policies to remove difficulties for production and business, implementing socio-economic development tasks; ensured social security, safety of life and people's health. In particular, during the year, the whole province successfully organized the Party Congress at all levels, the eighteenth Provincial Party Congress, the term 2020 - 2025, the 5th provincial patriotic emulation congress (2020 – 2025 term) ... For the task of disbursing public investment and ODA capital, the province basically achieved the set progress and plan. The provincial People's Committee also promptly adjusted to focus on investment in industry and construction. Therefore, in 2020, industry and construction in the province increased by 4.5%. This is the premise to diversify revenue sources as well as ensure stable sources of income in the coming years.
 
However, due to the heavy impact of the Covid-19 epidemic, in 2020, the revenue of the province's tourism industry decreased by 81%. This is the main reason leading to negative growth in the province. In addition, natural disasters in the last months of the year also directly affect the development.
