On the occasion of the Lunar New Year 2016, I would like to send my best wishes for the New Year to all my compatriots, comrades, soldiers and children of the province who are living, studying and working in all parts of the country and abroad.

The year 2015 has just ended, the world and domestic economic context has recovered slowly and faced many difficulties, which has significantly affected the production, business and life of the people of the province. However, thanks to the attention, leadership and great facilitation of the Central Party, the Government, together with the spirit of consensus, efforts and high determination of the Party Committee, the government and the people, the socio-economic situation of our province has achieved many encouraging achievements:

Many important projects were inaugurated such as: Vinh International Airport Passenger Terminal, railway overpass (Quan Banh section), National Highway 1A through Nghe An, Tay Nghe An Road, Truong Bon Historical Site, basically opened National Highway 1A - Nghia Dan - Thai Hoa, Nghe An International Hospital... Some key projects were started such as: VSIP Nghe An Urban and Service Industrial Park, Song Lam Cement Factory, Raw Water Supply Factory, Yen Xuan Road Bridge over Lam River, Tan Thang Cement Factory, Quynh Lap 1 Thermal Power Plant...

Along with the emulation spirit of the movements, cultural and social activities continued to change positively, education and training, culture, sports, and health continued to be bright spots of the whole country.

Entering the new year of Binh Than 2016 - the first year of implementing the Resolution of the Party Congresses at all levels, the task set for the Party Committee, government and people of the province is to strive, seize opportunities, overcome all difficulties and challenges, achieve and exceed the set plan to create new position and strength, and create a breakthrough in the province's socio-economic development strategy in the new period.

I call on my compatriots, comrades, soldiers and people of the province to continue to uphold the revolutionary tradition, unite, strive to compete in labor and creativity, make the best use of internal resources, make the most of external resources, strive to successfully achieve socio-economic goals, continue to gain even greater achievements in the cause of industrialization and modernization, ensure national defense and security, and build Nghe An homeland to become increasingly prosperous.

I hope that the Party Committee, government and people of the province will make more efforts, achieve more achievements, be worthy of being the homeland of President Ho Chi Minh, and rise to become a leading province in the region and a fairly developed province in the country as the target of Resolution 26 of the Politburo.
