On behalf of the provincial leaders, Provincial Party Secretary and Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Thai Thanh Quy accepted the comments of former provincial leaders of different periods; at the same time, he also frankly stated that the province's development has not been commensurate with its potential.
Some indicators on growth rate, budget revenue, and per capita income have not yet met the spirit of the Resolution of the 18th Provincial Party Congress, term 2015 - 2020.
Some pressing issues have seen slow progress despite attention and direction; Party building and the political system still have many issues of concern.
According to comrade Thai Thanh Quy, the above issues require more efforts, determination and drastic measures in the leadership, direction and management of Party committees and authorities from the province to the grassroots level.

I hope that former provincial leaders will always be the vanguard in mobilizing and persuading people to carry out grassroots movements well, contributing with the entire political system to promote the implementation of the province's common tasks.
