Cua Lo in the flow of national tourism development strategy

Secretary of the Party Committee, Chairman of the People's Council of Cua Lo Ward - Ngo Duc Kien emphasized: Resolution No. 08, dated January 16, 2017 of the Politburo on developing tourism into a spearhead economic sector and Action Program No. 55 of the Standing Committee of Nghe An Provincial Party Committee, Plan No. 62 of the Provincial People's Committee have opened a clear direction for the development of Nghe An tourism. The goal by 2030 is that Nghe An tourism will basically become a spearhead economic sector, a tourism center of the North Central region and an attractive destination of the whole country.
This is an important "compass" for the Party Committee, Government and People of Cua Lo Ward to concretize into a strategy for developing civilized and modern urban coastal tourism.

In recent years, with the attention of the Central Government, the province, and the consensus of the people, Cua Lo tourism has affirmed its position as the "sea brand" of Nghe An. Tourism infrastructure continues to be invested synchronously, creating a spacious appearance for the coastal city. Many high-class hotels and resorts have been established, including the participation of major brands such as: Vinpearl Melia, Muong Thanh Grand, Saigon - Kim Lien, Summer...

Many new, high-class tourism products such as VinWonders, cable car to Ngu Island, modern entertainment and shopping areas, restaurant chains - typical culinary services... Tourism has become an important source of income, creating jobs, promoting the development of services and related industries, contributing to improving people's lives.
“Cua Lo is not only a resort destination but also an image of Nghe An, friendly, dynamic, with a desire for innovation and green growth,” said Ngo Duc Kien, Party Secretary and Chairman of the People's Council of Cua Lo Ward.

Look straight at the limitations to develop a breakthrough
In addition to the achieved results, the discussion also frankly pointed out the "bottlenecks" that need to be removed with synchronous and fundamental solutions.
That is, tourism products are still monotonous and seasonal; service quality is uneven; there is a lack of unique, large-scale products with new trends.
There are still many projects in the area that are slow or not implemented; clean land funds for strategic investors are limited. Tourism human resources are weak in skills and foreign languages; the international tourist market has not been effectively exploited.
These are the challenges facing Cua Lo ward in its journey to become a civilized and modern coastal tourist city, competitive enough with major tourist centers in the country and the region.
4 key solution groups, breakthrough
To realize the development aspiration, comrade Ngo Duc Kien proposed 4 groups of solutions:
The first, taking tourism as a breakthrough. Implementing Resolution No. 36-NQ/TW on marine economic strategy, Cua Lo identified marine tourism development as a pillar. Proposing the province to issue specific mechanisms and policies to encourage investment, build new tourism products, apply digital transformation in promoting and exploiting traditional cultural values of fishing villages, creating a unique identity. In particular, in the first quarter of 2026, develop a new phase tourism development project, towards planning the Nghe An National Coastal Tourism Area and hosting the National Tourism Year.
Monday,synchronous planning and infrastructure Review and accelerate the progress of licensed projects; revoke “suspended” projects to reserve land for capable investors.

Tuesday,build a brand, promote strongly. Position Cua Lo as a "green - clean - beautiful, safe, friendly" destination.

At the same time, link tourism development with marine environmental protection, exploit the value of folk festivals, whale worship, boat racing festivals, create unique tourism products, attract domestic and foreign tourists.

Identifying tourism human resources as the key, Cua Lo focuses on training in behavioral culture, foreign languages, vocational skills and management. Coordinate with training facilities to foster a professional workforce; launch the movement "Cua Lo people are hospitable and civilized"; encourage businesses to proactively train and improve management capacity towards digitalizing services, improving management capacity, and gradually integrating internationally.
With the desire for development, comrade Ngo Duc Kien affirmed: In the new term, the Party Committee of Cua Lo ward determined that developing a civilized and modern coastal tourism urban area is one of the three important breakthroughs. With the attention and direction of the Provincial Party Committee, the People's Council, the Provincial People's Committee, the accompaniment of departments and branches, and the spirit of consensus and high determination of the people, Cua Lo tourism will certainly have strong and sustainable development, affirming the position of Cua Lo on the national tourism map, contributing increasingly to the overall development of Nghe An province.
