However, Nghe An does not only determine economic growth simply but also must be associated with social progress, in every policy, in every step; social security work is always focused on, mutual love and mutual assistance movements continue to be widely launched.

That solidarity and unity is expressed by the province's policies and political determination in focusing on solving bottlenecks and weak issues to serve the socio-economic development process; creating positive changes in leadership and direction with focus, key points, proactively and resolutely performing tasks.
