He said that with a number of free trade agreements (FTAs) signed, Vietnam is
opening its economy to the world but issues have arisen from the pandemic, such
as a lack of containers to transport goods.
The Government therefore assigned the Ministry of Transport to improve the
quality of Vietnam’s ocean-going vessels to address disruptions in trade.
Deputy Minister of Planning and Investment Tran Quoc Phuong said the ministry
was asked to work with other relevant agencies to draft measures in support of
the economy, businesses, and people hit by COVID-19, to be submitted to the
Government and PM.
He affirmed that such measures will be announced when they are ready.
Regarding the resumption of passenger transport services, Phuong said this
should be done with an abundance of caution to ensure safety because the
pandemic remains a complex matter worldwide.
A programme will be launched this year, he said, to help enterprises take
advantage of the opportunities from digital transformation.
In regard to perfecting relevant mechanisms, Dung said e-Government will address
issues such as information digitalisation and privacy, thus recognising the
legal value of electronic documents.
