(VOV) – Vietnam’s economic growth must reach 6.27% in the second half of the year to fulfill growth target of 5.8% for the whole year, said economists at a recent seminar discussing the economic situation in the first half and new challenges.
” There should be uniform solutions to reach the set target” they said.
In the first half of the year, GDP growth rate increased 5.18% against the same period last year with a low inflation rate and trade surplus reaching US$1.3 billion. These figures have shown positive signs of economic recovery, which will open up opportunities to fulfill macro-economic targets as scheduled.
Most notably, the Purchasing Managers Index (PMI) remained high in the past six months, which shows that businesses are regaining their motivation thanks to improved production conditions.
However, local businesses are facing difficulties in production activities. In addition, the low demand for business loans to expand operations has reduced these businesses’ competitive capacity.
