HCMC – The northern province of Ninh Binh is envisioned to become a centrally-governed city in 2035, characterized by its millennium-old urban heritage and innovative spirit.
Deputy Prime Minister Tran Hong Ha signed a decision on March 5 approving the provincial planning of Ninh Binh for the period 2021-2030, with a vision towards 2050, reported the VnExpress news site.
Envisioned as a centrally-governed city, Ninh Binh is poised to emerge as a key hub for high-value brands in tourism, cultural industries, and the heritage economy. Additionally, it aims to lead the nation in the transportation engineering sector.
