HÀ NỘI Prime Minister Phạm Minh Chính has emphasised the need for the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment (MoNRE) to train and build a contingent of capable officials and public servants to fulfil the difficult and complicated tasks related to land, natural resources and minerals. Cumbersome and unnecessary administrative procedures that hinder development and cause inconvenience for people should be removed, he stressed. The ministry should focus on digital transformation, green transition and circular economy, while pooling resources to establish databases on land, the environment and minerals connected with the Ministry of Public Security’s population database, Chính said. The PM asked the ministry to drive the development of maritime economy, concentrating on meticulous planning to ensure land reserves for development, and review priority land bases earmarked for the planning of economic and industrial centres along the coastline. In 2024, the ministry was tasked with evaluating water resources and forecasting challenges to propose strategic solutions to ensure water security.
