National Assembly deputies discuss social economic situation

They agreed on the government report and praised its management efficiency, especially in promoting high-tech agriculture investment. Deputy Tran Hoang Ngan from Ho Chi Minh City said: “In the first 4 months of this year, the macro economy remained stable, and inflation was under control. However, the growth rate was 5.1% compared to projected 6.7%. We should promote the private sector economy and independence to contribute more to national economic growth.”

Deputies asked for a resolute settlement of corruption cases and clarify accountability of relevant agencies for losses of state budget in poorly managed investment projects.
