Also during the working program, Provincial Party Secretary Thai Thanh Quy and the working delegation surveyed locations in three coastal communes: Nghi Tien, Nghi Yen (Nghi Loc) and Dien Trung (Dien Chau); Xuan Duong Lake area, Dien Phu commune (Dien Chau).

According to the general policy of the province, along with attracting industrial projects, the Southeast Economic Zone will attract investors in the fields of resorts and sports to have more unique tourism products and high-quality resorts, in order to effectively exploit tourism potential, meet the needs of investors and experts coming to work, as well as attract tourists to the province.

In an exchange with leaders of the Provincial People's Committee and related departments, branches and localities, the head of the Provincial Party Committee emphasized the viewpoint that when attracting and implementing projects, it is necessary to ensure the environment, harmonize the interests of people and businesses, especially the need to minimize resettlement of people. Projects also need to limit the ratio of real estate business and focus on exploiting tourism and sports potential.

Through the inspection of the actual situation, the Provincial Party Secretary requested that it is necessary to survey the model of some localities before selecting investors. At the same time, investors must meet the capacity in terms of capital, technique, technology and experience; technology and processing equipment must be modern, ensuring synchronous and advanced requirements and ensuring environmental hygiene according to regulations.
