Specifically, the Government will review Resolution 01/NQ-CP on “Major solutions guiding and directing the realization of the Plan for socio-economic development and state budget estimate in 2013” and Resolution 02/NQ-CP on “Solutions to remove difficulties against production and business, support the market and deal with non-performing loans,” dated January 7, 2013.  

The PM also asked his inferiors to craft a Resolution on “Major solutions guiding and directing the realization of the Plan for socio-economic development and state budget estimate in 2014.”

The MPI is in charge of reporting the implementation before December 10, 2013 in order to prepare for an upcoming conference between the Government and localities to realize the National Assembly’s Resolution on Socio-economic development plan and state budget estimate for 2014.

Earlier, the NA approved main growth rates, including a Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth rate of 5.8%, an export turnover growth of 10%, a trade deficit of 6% of total export turnover, a Consumption Price Index (CPI) growth of 7% and a total social development investment that makes up 30% of GDP.

On social development, the Resolution has set to reduce poor households by 1.7%-2%, create jobs for 1.6 million laborers, reduce urban unemployment rate to under 4%, increase the percentage of trained workers to 52%, and decrease the rate of children under five with malnutrition to 15.5%./.
