Learning about the planning of a Cam Lam Airport urban area, PM Chinh demanded that the planning must succeed in turning Cam Lam from a rural and mountainous area into a modern, green and smart city which is also a tourism, service, educational and healthcare centre.

He requested authorities, sectors, and investors quickly carry out investment procedures, build quality resettlement areas for the displaced residents, preserve local culture, and ensure both material and spiritual life of the people living in the project area in the principle of harmonising interests among the State, people and businesses.

On the occasion of 34 years since 64 Vietnamese naval soldiers sacrificed their lives while safeguarding Gac Ma Reefin Viet Nam’s Truong Sa (Spratly) archipelago (March 14, 1988), PM Chinh offered incense in commemoration of the martyrs at the Gac Ma soldiers’ memorial site in Cam Hai commune of Cam Lam district.

Later the same day, the Government leader visited officers and soldiers of Submarine Brigade 189 and Brigade 162 of Naval Region 4.
