GOV’T TARGETS TO KEEP INFLATION BELOW 4.5% THIS YEAR
The Government has reassured its resolve to keep inflation rate at around 4-4.5 percent this year, according to Resolution 93/NQ-CP issued on June 18.
The move was made as the consumer price index in the first five months increased 4.03 percent from the same period last year.
The Government also remains steadfast with the GDP growth goal of 6-6.5 percent capped by the National Assembly.
To realize the above goals, the Government tasked ministries and agencies to renew the traditional growth drivers (investment, export and consumption), while promoting new growth engines such as regional connectivity, digital economy, green economy, circular economy, and innovation, along with emerging industries such as semiconductors and Artificial Intelligence (AI).
They were also tasked to promptly submit decrees guiding the implementation of new laws on land, housing, real estate business, and credit organizations.
The Government ordered that the construction of the Quang Trach-Pho Noi power transmission line project must be completed before June 30. The project plays an important role in the country’s energy security, especially the northern region.

VIỆT NAM STEPS UP EXPORT TO ACHIEVE US$550-BILLION TARGET
Việt Nam is intensifying efforts to sustain export momentum in the second half of 2026 as the country works towards its target of US$550 billion in export revenue for the year, despite continuing uncertainties in global trade. Statistics show that exports reached $266.5 billion in the first six months, meaning the economy needs to generate around $245.5 billion more during the remainder of the year to meet the annual goal.
ASIA POWERS VIETNAM’S SHRIMP BOOM, LEAVING THE WEST BEHIND
In the first half of 2026, Vietnam's shrimp exports surpassed the US$2.3 billion mark, driven largely by booming demand from China and a lobster craze. But behind that growth figure lies a lopsided picture: Asia is carrying the load, while the U.S. and Europe have yet to break out. These days, a container of frozen shrimp leaving a Ho Chi Minh City port is more likely to cross the East Vietnam Sea to Shanghai than the Pacific to Los Angeles.
CHINESE INVESTMENT WAVE OPENS NEW DOORS

When global companies first diversified supply chains, the focus was largely on relocating manufacturing capacity.
