Cam Lam has great potential for high-end tourism development thanks to the ownership of the Northern Cam Ranh Peninsula Tourist Area. According to Mr Ngo Van Bao, currently, the People's Committee of Cam Lam district is coordinating with a consulting unit to develop an urban development program for the area expected to form a new urban area of ​​Cam Lam by 2030, with a vision to 2045. To develop Khanh Hoa province into a centrally-run city, first of all, the entire province needs to be recognized as an area expected to establish a type I urban area. The roadmap to achieve this is to promote the strong development of coastal urban routes, in which Cam Lam is the area with the most potential development opportunities due to its proximity to Nha Trang City. Therefore, Cam Lam is a key target for urban development in Khanh Hoa in the coming period. The provincial planning identifies that by 2030, Cam Lam will strive to become a city, a type I urban area. Therefore, the district is striving by 2030, to basically achieve some criteria of a type I urban area, moving towards establishing Cam Lam City under the province. To achieve the set goal, Cam Lam district needs to be planned with a long-term vision, a rapid growth scenario, based on the level of policy concentration and large financial resources and population size structure, quite different from the way of developing a district into a normal town.
