Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh emphasized that the country is in the process of strong development, requesting much focus on infrastructure investment, especially in highways and seaports. This is a major policy of the Party and State to promote manufacturing, reduce logistics costs, and improve competitiveness. Driven by many drastic solutions and flexible management, inflation has been controlled. It is an important condition for the Government to direct the bank to continue to implement policies to reduce interest rates, create favorable conditions for businesses and people to access loans. The central government, ministries and locals are always in the state of readiness to remove obstacles and difficulties for enterprises in manufacturing, business, investment and project implementation. The common spirit is to coordinate closely, not to neglect or leave responsibility up to others, to accompany businesses to overcome difficulties and create favorable conditions for them. However, on the side of the businesses, the investor must also make utmost efforts, promote responsibility, overcome challenges to complete the project before the term, avoid wasting resources and reduce unpredictable adverse impacts.
