ABO/NDO- Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh emphasised the importance of planning work at a meeting of an evaluation council for the national master plan in 2021-2030 with a vision to 2050 in Hanoi on September 14.

He noted that this is the first ever national master plan which concretises the orientations outlined by the 13th National Party Congress and other documents of the Party Central Committee.

Therefore, the master plan must clearly identify the country’s distinctive potential, opportunities and competitive edges, thus working out suitable solutions to optimize all resources, the Government leader said.
