The event was attended by Secretary of the provincial Party Committee Nguyen Thi Thu Ha; Permanent Deputy Secretary of the provincial Party Committee and Chairman of the provincial People's Council Tran Hong Quang; and Deputy Secretary of the provincial Party Committee and Chairman of the provincial People's Committee Pham Quang Ngoc, among others.
At the working session, President Phuc highlighted the increasingly important role of the collective economy and cooperatives in the market economy.
He said the collective economy must be connected with local advantages, emphasising that developing cooperatives in a socialist-oriented market economy is a task of the entire political system, and Party committees and administrations at all levels must view this as a political task.
It is necessary to develop a strategy for developing cooperatives and cooperative groups and build a new-style and modern model of cooperatives that goes beyond the traditional cooperative model, President Phuc stressed.
Cooperatives and cooperative groups should have their strategic visions while applying modern corporate governance models and advanced technology to their production activities, he said.
The State leader requested Ninh Binh province to tap into its advantages and potential to create profound and fundamental changes to agricultural production methodology and rural areas.
President Phuc also suggested the province capitalise on its advantages in tourism, mechanics, industry, and agricultural services to further boost its development in the coming time.
