Its overall goal is to accelerate production and business, secure GDP growth of 6.5-7% a year over the next 5 years and ensure major macro-economic balances. The programme will benefit people, workers, enterprises, cooperatives, and business households that have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as economic sectors that create the driving force for economic recovery and development. Support policies will be implemented over two years (2022-2023), with some policies to possibly be extended depending on the evolution of the pandemic.
