Khanh Hoa Province allocates 155 billion VND for forest and marine protection

The Khanh Hoa Provincial People's Committee has issued a management plan for the forest and marine resources of the Nui Chua - Phuoc Binh National Park for the 2026–2030 period. The plan requires an estimated budget of over 155.4 billion VND.

Key objectives include protecting and restoring ecosystems, conserving biodiversity, and developing sustainable livelihoods for communities in buffer zones. The province aims to increase forest coverage by approximately 1% by 2030 through reforestation and natural regeneration. The plan covers roughly 40,418 hectares of forest, including special-use, protection, and production forests.

To achieve these goals, the Nui Chua - Phuoc Binh National Park Management Board will increase patrols to prevent illegal logging, forest product extraction, and wildlife hunting. The strategy also emphasizes forest fire prevention, the application of science and technology, and digital transformation to enhance resource management.
