At a teleconference between the Government and localities on January 5, Deputy Prime Minister Le Minh Khai, on behalf of the Cabinet, presented its draft resolution on the key tasks and solutions for implementing the socio-economic development and State budget plans in 2022.

Among the three main tasks, the first is to revive and promote production and business activities, step up export, accelerate public investment disbursement, and encourage public - private partnership for developing infrastructure, especially strategic infrastructure facilities.

The third is to boost substantive and effective economic restructuring; develop e-commerce, the digital economy, and new business models applying information and digital technology; and deal with outstanding problems that have lasted for years, according to Khai.

He noted that to do so, the Government has devised several measures, including drastically and concurrently implementing the overall programme on COVID-19 prevention and control and the one on socio-economic recovery and development in order to achieve a GDP growth rate of 6 - 6.5 percent.

It will also proactively, flexibly, and uniformly use monetary, fiscal, and other macro-economic policies to sustain macro-economic stability, control inflation, and guarantee major balances of the economy. Besides, it will stimulate domestic consumption, sustainably develop export and import, effectively mobilise resources for socio-economic recovery and development, and make use of public investment to attract non-State resources./.
