Development efforts in the Hanoi region are focusing on both rural modernization and urban revitalization. In the outskirts, such as Ung Thien commune, initiatives under the ‘New Rural Development’ program prioritize environmental protection, waste management, and landscape improvement.

In rural craft villages like Phu Vinh, efforts are being made to revitalize the rattan and bamboo weaving industry through digital transformation. The local Farmers' Union has introduced a digitalized professional association model to better connect artisans and businesses.

Concurrently, urban planning efforts are targeting the Vinh Hung ward, where a new project aims to address infrastructure challenges across 447 hectares. The plan seeks to mitigate traffic congestion caused by narrow roads, improve drainage to prevent flooding, and significantly increase the availability of social infrastructure and green spaces while attempting to preserve the area’s traditional character.
