At the first conference of the Central Highlands Coordinating Council in Da Lat city, Lam Dong province, on Wednesday, the Deputy PM said the three main tasks are upgrading transport infrastructure, enhancing intra-region connectivity, and establishing connectivity with adjacent regions and localities. 

Localities in the region should devise mechanisms to coordinate with each other in investment attraction and promotion following the principle of putting the region's common interests first, he said, adding that another important task is to set forth a strategy on developing agricultural production chains to make the best use of regional advantages.
