According to the Department of Finance, as of September 10, the total public investment capital in 2025 has been assigned by the Provincial People's Committee to be over 35.6 trillion VND (excluding the extended capital plan). Of which, the capital plan assigned by the Prime Minister is over 31.9 trillion VND, the provincial capital plan is additionally assigned over 3.7 trillion VND. Up to that point, the total public investment capital according to the 2025 plan has been disbursed over 11.8 trillion VND, reaching over 37% of the plan. If not counting the capital of over 9.2 trillion VND of the Gia Nghia - Chon Thanh Expressway Project (allowing the disbursement period to be extended until the end of 2026) and the Long Thanh International Airport External Drainage Project, the province's capital disbursement rate reaches over 52% of the plan.

According to the assessment, although the Provincial People's Committee has directed strongly and the authorities have made many efforts, the disbursement rate of public investment capital up to this point has not met expectations.

Regarding the medium-term public investment plan for the 2026-2030 period, according to the preliminary report, the total medium-term public investment capital in the province during this period is more than 147 trillion VND.

Regarding the investment plan to build resettlement areas in the province, according to the Provincial People's Committee, synthesizing reports from localities, the resettlement demand to serve constructions and projects in the province in the period of 2026-2030 is more than 47 thousand plots of land (each resettlement plot is expected to have an average area of ​​100m2).

Concluding the working session, Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Vo Tan Duc said: According to the Prime Minister's request, by 2025, Dong Nai as well as other localities nationwide must complete the disbursement of 100% of public investment capital.

To complete this goal, for units assigned with large capital plans for 2025, the Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee requested to urgently review projects with high disbursement potential and projects expected to be unable to disburse in time to send to the Department of Finance in September 2025. The Department of Finance advised the Provincial People's Committee to internally adjust projects to speed up capital disbursement progress.

Along with that, urgently rebuild the critical path of the entire project being implemented as well as difficulties and problems to promptly handle.

The Departments of Construction, Agriculture and Environment, Industry and Trade and related departments and branches continue to apply the "green channel" mechanism in the entire process of appraisal and approval of project documents, minimizing the time for handling administrative procedures.

Assessing the major cause affecting the progress of capital disbursement is site clearance, Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Vo Tan Duc requested units and localities to identify site clearance as the decisive link in the entire public investment process. Therefore, it is necessary to be urgent and determined in compensation and site clearance to soon hand over to the construction unit to implement the project. "Without site, there will be no construction" - Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Vo Tan Duc emphasized.
