Attention has been also paid to strengthening inter-regional investment promotion and cooperative activities towards attracting more investment to the province.
The centre is coordinating with relevant agencies to accelerate the implementation of a sustainable marine-based economic development project to 2030, while supporting the department in adjusting and issuing preferential policies for investment in the locality, she said.
