Resolution No. 59-NQ/TW introduces breakthrough orientations, emphasising requirements for “proactive, comprehensive, effective as well as substantive international integration”. This approach not only aims to expand trade but also strengthens endogenous capacity and paving the way for an independent alongside self-reliant economy.

Building momentum for effective integration

To bring Resolution No. 59 into practical implementation, The Dak Lak PPC issued Plan No. 0137/KH-UBND dated November 28, 2025, on implementing Government Resolution No. 153/NQ-CP alongside Programme No. 02-CTr/TU dated September 19, 2025, promulgated by Provincial Party Standing Committee for implementation of Resolution No. 59.

With a spirit of “turning words into action”, Dak Lak during the first quarter of 2026 continued strengthening cooperative ties with localities in Laos and Cambodia through delegation exchanges activities, while maintaining close relations with diplomatic agencies. The PPC is currently promoting new cooperation agreements with Champasak Province in Laos together with Mondulkiri Province in Cambodia, while also discussing establishment of official relations with Savannakhet Province of Laos.
