The above comments were made by the leaders of VCCI Mekong Delta at a working session with the leaders of Vinh Long province.
Specifically, on August 12, 2025, a working delegation of the Vietnam Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Mekong Delta Branch (VCCI Mekong Delta) led by Mr. Nguyen Phuong Lam - Director, had a working session with the People's Committee of Vinh Long province. The delegation was received by Mr. Lu Quang Ngoi - Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee, along with leaders of relevant departments and branches.

Mr. Nguyen Phuong Lam - Director of VCCI Mekong Delta shared about the action program, proposed cooperation with Vinh Long province
The meeting focused on discussing the orientation and cooperation solutions to realize the goal of rapid and sustainable development of Vinh Long province, improve the investment - business environment, enhance the provincial competitiveness index (PCI), and attract quality investment capital.
At the meeting, VCCI Mekong Delta assessed that after the merger, Vinh Long province not only expanded its scale but also increased its momentum, holding an important position in the economic development of the Mekong Delta region. In particular, Vinh Long province is currently the leading province in the region in terms of the number of projects and total accumulated FDI capital. However, the number of active enterprises/1,000 people in Vinh Long is currently lower than the average of the whole country and the Mekong Delta region. Meanwhile, the growth in both quantity and quality of enterprises will be proportional to economic growth. To achieve the target of 8% increase in GRDP in 2025 and aim for double-digit growth in the coming time, the province needs to remove "bottlenecks" in the business development chain.
On that basis, VCCI Mekong Delta continues to propose implementing the "Cooperation program to improve the business environment, attract investment, develop the economy and enterprises for Vinh Long province, period 2026 - 2030". The program includes 4 groups of activities revolving around 4 important Resolutions, including:
1. Building legal policies and improving the business environment
2. Training and capacity building for businesses in the province
3. Promoting science and technology, innovation, digital transformation
4. Promoting trade, attracting investment

Chairman of Vinh Long Provincial People's Committee - Mr. Lu Quang Ngoi spoke at the meeting
Speaking at the meeting, Chairman of Vinh Long Provincial People's Committee - Lu Quang Ngoi said that the province is very interested in developing enterprises, especially leading enterprises with the ability to lead, create industry linkage chains and spread values in the economy. In addition, promoting trade, expanding markets and attracting strategic investors are top priorities.
The province is also resolutely implementing Resolution No. 68-NQ/TW, focusing on supporting and promoting the State's role as accompaniment and support for the private economic sector; protecting the legitimate rights and interests of enterprises and entrepreneurs; ensuring that the private economic sector has equal access to business opportunities and development resources.
Representatives of VCCI Mekong Delta and Vinh Long province discussed programs and solutions to improve the business environment, increase the PCI index and support Vinh Long enterprises to develop sustainably
Through the working session, the leaders of Vinh Long Provincial People's Committee welcomed and highly appreciated the Cooperation Program for the period 2026-2030 proposed by VCCI Mekong Delta. The province hopes that VCCI will support the province in improving the business environment, increasing the PCI index and supporting Vinh Long enterprises to develop sustainably. At the same time, VCCI will continue to act as a bridge with potential enterprises and investors, as well as share experiences to improve the competitiveness of Vinh Long in particular and the entire Mekong Delta region in general.
