Da Nang's leaders have asked the city to reach economic growth of at least 11% in 2026, according to a report on the city's information portal about the People's Committee's regular October meeting on the afternoon of 2 November. Nguyễn Đức Dũng, chairman of the City People's Council, made the request, and Nguyễn Mạnh Hùng, chairman of the People's Committee, co-chaired the meeting.

Finance Department director Trần Thị Thanh Tâm reported that state budget revenue had reached more than VND76,335 billion by 27 October, or 115% of the estimate. Domestic revenue was more than VND68,844 billion, or 116.64% of its estimate, and import-export revenue was more than VND6,410 billion.

Over the first ten months, accommodation establishments received more than 17 million visitors, up 24.5% on 2025. The report puts international visitors at more than 8.3 million and domestic visitors at more than 8.78 million. Domestic investment capital attracted exceeded VND194,009 billion, up 52.11%.

On public investment, the city has allocated 100% of its 2026 capital plan to specific projects, and disbursement had reached VND14,523.598 billion by 31 October, or 84.48% of the plan assigned by the Prime Minister. Shared infrastructure at Liên Chiểu Port has completed its construction volume, and the coastal road linking the port has opened to traffic on a technical basis while final items are finished. Of 2,035 land and property cases under review, 1,986 (97.6%) have been handled.

Dũng also asked for faster disbursement and project reviews and stressed groundwork for the 2027 plan. Hùng asked agencies to complete the 2026 socio-economic plan, prioritise health and waste-treatment projects in the medium-term public investment plan, and speed up payments on build-transfer projects to reduce interest costs. Both called for faster responses to voter petitions before the year-end council session.
