On Nov. 12, Vice Chairman of the Quang Ninh People's Committee Le Van Anh met with a delegation from Laos to share the city's experience in attracting and managing foreign investment.
During the meeting, Mr. Le Van Anh briefed the delegation on Quang Ninh's socioeconomic development, investment advantages and achievements in attracting foreign direct investment (FDI).
Quang Ninh has currently had 254 active FDI projects with total registered capital of nearly $17.26 billion. In the first 10 months of 2026, the city attracted nearly $1.5 billion in FDI, 2.8 times the amount recorded during the same period last year.
Sharing Quang Ninh's experience, Mr. Le Van Anh highlighted the importance of effective urban and economic planning, coordinated infrastructure development, administrative reforms and a highly skilled workforce.
He also stressed the need for local authorities to maintain regular dialogue with businesses, promptly address their difficulties and ensure security and public order to create a stable environment for investors.
Quang Ninh continues to prioritize investment in high technology, green industries, the digital economy and high-quality services.
Mr. Vanthana Nolintha, a standing member and chief of office of the Lao Investment Promotion and Management Committee (IPMC), praised Quang Ninh's socioeconomic achievements, particularly its success in attracting major investors and high-tech companies.
He said the delegation valued Quang Ninh's approach to development planning, infrastructure investment, workforce training and ongoing government support for businesses.
The delegation viewed these experiences as practical lessons that Laos could study and apply to improve its foreign investment attraction and management.
