Three Vietnam tourist cities among world's 100 greatest places

Tran Thi Hong Minh, Director of the Institute for Policy and Strategy Studies under the Party Central Committee’s Commission for Policies and Strategies, said: "In a world of rapid and complex changes, linkages help businesses diversify markets, connect with new models and better use resources. They are also critical in mitigating risks and enhancing overall competitiveness.”

As Vietnam deepens its integration into the global economy through more than 15 free trade agreements (FTAs), including the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP) and the EU-Vietnam Free Trade Agreement (EVFTA), origin transparency has become a non-negotiable requirement to access tariff preferences and avoid trade defence measures.

Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh has urged ministries, agencies, and local authorities to create favorable mechanisms and policies that support student entrepreneurship, particularly in the areas of finance and intellectual property.

The Standing Committee of the National Assembly’s Committee for Economic and Financial Affairs has requested a more detailed assessment of both the positive aspects and the associated challenges, levels of risk, and the capacity for risk management; as well as clearer analysis of the impacts of establishing an International Financial Centre (IFC), including relevant international experiences that could be applied to Vietnam's context.

​The Government remains determined, encouraging ministries, local authorities and businesses to stay optimistic, tackle challenges head-on and seize emerging opportunities.

According to the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment (MAE), Vietnam’s agricultural product exports are inevitably affected by disruptions in global supply chains and the imposition of unilateral, stringent tariff policies by major economies. Nonetheless, these challenges also present an opportunity for Vietnam to adjust its export strategy and focus more intently on emerging and high-potential markets.

On April 19, the Binh Thuan Provincial People’s Committee held an inauguration ceremony for two major coastal roads of DT.719B (from National Highway 1 to Nhum Stream Bridge) and the Ham Kiem – Tien Thanh Road.
