A two-place drop in the 2023 PCI (Provincial Competitiveness Index) in the rankings notwithstanding, many component indexes have improved significantly, speaking volumes for the province's efforts in improving the investment and business environment in recent years.

That is the affirmation of Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Nguyen Van Phuong about the Provincial Governance and Public Administration Performance Index (PAPI) in 2021 when the ranking of the Province increased by 9 places, rising to the leading position in the country in the recently announced list.
