Ca Mau aims to form a synchronous, green, smart and highly competitive urban system by 2030. Practices from wards in the province show that when localities know how to exploit advantages well, mobilize social resources and build a clear development orientation, the urban economy can completely become a solid pillar in the process of economic restructuring. It is not only a change in numbers or proportions, but also an innovation in the approach, organization and operation of a dynamic and modern economy, thereby building Ca Mau into a prosperous, rich in identity and worth living place.

An Xuyen Highlights

Located in the center of the provincial capital, expected to become one of the locomotives for urban economic development of the province, An Xuyen ward determined to build an urban model in the direction of trade and tourism, associated with digital transformation and night-time economic development.

In the ward, urban life is increasingly bustling with the presence of modern commercial centers, large-scale restaurant and hotel chains, and hundreds of small businesses and households in operation. Not only trade, the tourism sector is also developing strongly, especially when the locality focuses on investing in smart tourism, connecting destinations rich in cultural values ​​such as Buddha Temple , Steel Wire House, President Ho Chi Minh Memorial Area...

Mr. Huynh Van Minh, Chairman of the Ward People's Committee, shared: "We identify the night-time economy as one of the driving forces to promote the transformation of the urban economic structure. Public spaces along the river, squares, night markets... are being re-planned, connected into night-time economic axes associated with walking streets and culinary streets. However, for these models to operate effectively, it is necessary to have synchronous infrastructure investment resources and specific support mechanisms from the province."

Despite difficulties in infrastructure and investment capital, with the right vision, An Xuyen ward is gradually becoming a bright spot in the economic picture of Ca Mau urban area.

Tan Thanh exploits trade and service advantages

Taking advantage of its location in the provincial center, Tan Thanh ward is affirming its highlight in the urban economic picture of the province. With more than 4,500 enterprises and business establishments, along with commercial centers such as Sense City, Co.opmart Ca Mau, trading and service activities in the ward are constantly developing, contributing to stabilizing the market and improving the quality of life of the people.

In addition to trade and services, the ward also focuses on developing modern and environmentally friendly industry and handicrafts. Many potential production facilities are being supported to develop, creating significant resources for export and creating stable jobs for local people.

Mr. Vo Minh Tan, Chairman of the Ward People's Committee, shared: "In the coming time, the ward will focus on building a synchronous urban model, developing civilized markets, convenience stores, e-commerce... At the same time, creating favorable conditions for businesses and business households to access land, credit and digital transformation. This will be the foundation for the locality to develop sustainably in the future."

Different from the bustling An Xuyen ward, Bac Lieu ward chooses a unique direction, based on the traditional cultural foundation.

Combining traditional cultural values ​​with modern commerce, Bac Lieu ward has chosen to develop tourism in a multi-colored direction. Events such as the “Da Co Hoai Lang” Festival, civilized tourist streets, or bustling night markets not only help preserve identity, but also breathe new life into urban life.

Mr. Le Viet Xo, Chairman of Bac Lieu Ward People's Committee, shared the local development orientation: "Tourism is becoming a key economic sector. We clearly identify the leading role of cultural and artistic activities, linked with modern trade and services. Through cultural events and open spaces, we hope to create a unique appearance for Bac Lieu urban area - a place with both cultural depth and youthful vitality of a modern urban area".

Along with tourism, the modern retail system in the ward has also made significant progress. Currently, the ward is focusing on improving the investment environment, supporting businesses and improving service quality to make a breakthrough in the new period.
