The report shows that in 2012, despite numerous difficulties in the global and domestic economies, unusual weather patterns, severe cold spells at the beginning of the year, prolonged heavy rains, and price increases for some essential goods, the socio-economic situation in the area achieved some positive results. The estimated GDP growth rate was approximately 6.63%; per capita income was estimated at 20.28 million VND, an increase of 14.3% compared to the same period, with 18 out of 24 targets met or exceeded. The report also points out existing shortcomings and limitations: GDP growth and budget revenue were lower than the same period and compared to the plan; many products did not meet the set targets; the remediation of scattered investment was slow, resulting in low investment attraction; and some social issues showed slow progress in addressing them…

Concluding on the implementation of the socio-economic development plan, the Provincial Party Secretary affirmed that in 2012, the province's socio-economic situation remained stable and showed growth; social security was ensured, and the number of poor households decreased significantly; total social investment capital nearly reached the plan; investment attraction was quite good; budget revenue and production and business activities showed growth; culture, society, technology, and the environment continued to make new progress; administrative reform, anti-corruption efforts, and handling of complaints and denunciations received attention; national defense and security, and social order and safety were ensured; after implementing Central Resolution 4, there has been an initial change in the spirit, responsibility, and work attitude of Party members and officials… However, there are five shortcomings and limitations that need to be overcome: some targets did not meet the set plan; the progress of building new rural areas is slow, including the implementation of land consolidation and exchange; Low investment attraction, large infrastructure debt, low disbursement of capital for infrastructure development; some social issues have received attention but progress remains slow, such as: surplus of teachers, medical ethics, drug abuse, the rate of third births…; administrative reform is still slow, convoluted, and not decisive enough.

Regarding the 2013 orientation, the Provincial Party Secretary requested that the following groups of solutions be focused on: Prioritizing agricultural production and rural development; classifying enterprises to address difficulties and provide specific support; reviewing, rectifying, and handling existing violations related to land and minerals; improving the quality of growth model transformation; focusing on the application and development of high technology; developing and improving the quality of human resources according to Resolution 08/TU of the Provincial Party Committee; rectifying public investment according to Directive 1792; continuing to reform state-owned enterprises in agricultural and forestry farms and some state-owned capital already allocated; improving the efficiency and value of processing industries, especially processing agricultural, forestry, and aquatic products; attracting investment focusing on large-scale, high-tech projects; taking care of socio-cultural issues to ensure social security and welfare; promoting administrative reform, combating corruption, and resolving complaints and denunciations.
