Storm No.13 (international name Kalmaegi) has caused severe damage to people, property, and infrastructure in the provinces it passed through.

In recent years, Kep Village in Ia Ly Commune, Gia Lai Province has emerged as a shining example of how community-based tourism can be successfully integrated with the preservation of traditional culture. The brocade weaving craft of the local Jrai ethnic community has not only been revitalised but has also become a distinctive tourism offering, drawing visitors to the village.

The first congress of the Gia Lai Provincial Party Committee for the 2025–2030 tenure was a significant political event, marking a major turning point for the province following its merger. With the motto “Solidarity – Democracy – Discipline – Breakthrough – Development”, Gia Lai has been laying firm foundations for its goal of becoming one of the fairly developed provinces in the country.

The People's Committee of the central province of Gia Lai on August 13 approved the investment policy for the first phase of Phu My port project, worth over 6 trillion VND (228 million USD), aiming at shaping up an industrial – sea port hub in the coming time.
