HÀ NỘI – In the first quarter of 2019, Việt Nam recorded positive economic achievements despite a range of difficulties both in and outside the country, Prime Minister Nguyễn Xuân Phúc said at a Government cabinet meeting in Hà Nội yesterday.
The country’s GDP growth was estimated at 6.79 percent, while the macroeconomy was stablised and foreign currency reserves were on the rise.
The inflow of foreign investment increased by nearly 31 percent, with US$4.12 billion disbursed, and total revenue from retail sales and services rose 12 percent, he added.
During the reviewed period, Việt Nam’s exports continued to expand amidst the global economic slowdown, helping the country to enjoy a trade plus of $536 million in the first three months of 2019, PM Phúc said.
The government leader highlighted the promising outcome of budget collection, reaching almost 27 percent of the annual target, and the establishment of new businesses, with more than 28,400 enterprises set up during the period, along with a low unemployment rate.
Although the global economy was predicted to slow this year, international organisations still had a positive outlook for Việt Nam, he said, citing growth forecasts from the Asian Development Bank (ADB) and the World Bank (WB) of 6.8 percent and 6.6 percent, higher than the predicted average growth of 6 percent in Asia-Pacific.
Apart from challenges caused by the global economic slowdown, Việt Nam would have to face pressure in attracting foreign direct investment (FDI) as China’s Foreign Investment Law was set to help raise the country’s competitiveness, he warned.
The PM asked ministries and localities to take measures to step up foreign investment attraction, thus creating resources for national economic development.
At the meeting, PM Phúc also mentioned African swine fever which has been reported in 23 cities and provinces nationwide, along with climate change and drought in the Central Highlands and the Southwestern regions, affecting domestic production.
He urged ministries, agencies and sectors to uphold their responsibility and overcome these challenges to fulfill their yearly targets, saying the greatest efforts should be made to ensure economic growth targets were met and to address social issues, especially in culture and education.
The government leader underlined the need to handle bottlenecks hindering the country’s economic growth, especially the low disbursement of public investment.
Given the disbursement of capital sourced from the state budget dropping 30 percent year-on-year, PM Phúc asked the Minister of Planning and Investment and other ministries and agencies to clarify the problem and accelerate disbursement in April.
Mentioning the credit growth rate of only 2.38 percent as compared with the yearly target of about 14 percent, the PM asked the State Bank of Việt Nam to employ measures to support production.
In terms of environmental protection, he asked the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment and localities to work harder to encourage the public to reduce the use of plastic products, helping to handle plastic waste, especially along the country’s coastline.
Regarding the recently-announced provincial competitiveness index, the PM asked localities to pay more attention to transparency, personnel training, corporate support and administrative reforms in land, tax and customs.
Cabinet members also discussed some reports, including those regarding administrative reforms in the first three months of 2019, and the Government’s programme on law and ordinance building, among others.
