In his speech for the opening session, Chairperson of Dong Nai People's Council Tran Van Tu addressed the following remarks:

- Over the past six months, Dong Nai’s socio-economy has maintained its growth rate despite encountering difficulties.

- Industry-Construction, Agriculture, Forestry, and Aquaculture showed an increase in production value. The export market in the first half of 2011 showed positive signals, which can be seen through its higher export value over the same period, up by 31.4 percent.

- The state budget revenue accounts for over 51 percent according to plans.

- Dong Nai seriously implemented the government’s Resolution no. 11/NQ-CP on the implementation of plans such as reducing spending, saving energy, reviewing and cutting down public investment, controlling banking activities, and using demand stimulus packages that help businesses expand production and business activities effectively.

- Administrative reform, anti-corruption, and anti-wastefulness programs were strengthened.

- Political security and social safety and order were preserved.

Chairperson of Dong Nai People's Council said that in addition to achievements there have existed some difficulties and weaknesses.

- The fluctuations of prices of such essential commodities as gasoline and electricity caused the prices of other commodities and interest rates to rise, which affects businesses’ production, business, and investment plans.

- Foreign investment was attracted at a low rate in the first half of 2011 and the disbursement progress of investment capital from the state budget slowed down.

For those reasons, the tasks in the second half of 2011 turned heavier, which requires sectors and levels of authorities to closely monitor the development of local socio-economic situation, to take initiative to cooperate and take effective measures at the same time, to promptly deal with difficulties, and to focus on working towards the government’s solutions on the basis of Resolution no. 11 to fulfill all targets as planned.
