Quang Ninh implements new spatial development and education restructuring plans

Quang Ninh has launched an action program to reorganize its spatial development structure to enhance regional and international connectivity. The new framework consists of three development corridors, four socio-economic zones, and five dynamic centers. Key hubs include Ha Long as the administrative and cultural center, the Quang Yen coastal economic zone for high-tech industry and logistics, Van Don as a maritime economy and tourism hub, and Mong Cai as a border trade and logistics center connecting to China.

In tandem with spatial planning, the city is proceeding with the restructuring of public educational institutions. Following a previous reduction from 570 to 290 facilities, the city aims to further consolidate these into 189 institutions by the end of 2026. This initiative seeks to improve management efficiency and resource utilization while ensuring the stability of teaching and learning activities.
