In his address, Secretary of the Hanoi Party Committee Vuong Dinh Hue lauded the MoIT’s initiative to coordinate with the World Bank (WB) and relevant agencies to hold the forum, which offers a chance for entrepreneurs, scientists, and experts to discuss how to best promote the growth of the domestic logistics sector.

Deputy Prime Minister Trinh Dinh Dung speaks at the forum

Deputy Prime Minister Trinh Dinh Dung asked the MoIT to soon establish a project on personnel matters in support of the National Steering Committee on ASEAN and National Single Window Mechanisms, while effectively implementing policies and action programmes on international economic integration, focusing on enhancing the capacity to realise international economic commitments.
He requested the Ministry of Planning and Investment coordinate with relevant agencies to promptly build a system for the compilation of logistics statistics to identify bottlenecks, and to mobilise social resources for the development of infrastructure. Dung urged central and local agencies to work closely to restructure supply chains and logistics services to recover the economy in post-COVID-19.
