AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

HCMC Development Blueprint: The Politburo’s Resolution 09-NQ/TW (May 19, 2026) lays out priorities for Ho Chi Minh City’s “new era” push, building on earlier city resolutions from 1982, 2002, 2012 and 2022 to align central and local execution. Foreign Affairs Coordination: Vietnam will set up a Central Steering Committee for Foreign Affairs and International Integration (Decision No. 198-QD/TW, June 10), chaired by Party General Secretary/State President To Lam, with PM Le Minh Hung as standing deputy head—signaling tighter whole-system management of external work. FDI Upgrade: Resolution 10-NQ/TW (June 8) shifts Vietnam’s FDI approach from broad “attraction” to selective “upgrading,” prioritising high-tech, technology transfer and deeper linkages with domestic industry. Digital Economy Drive: Deputy PM Ho Quoc Dung approved the 2026–2030 programme targeting a digital economy at ~30% of GDP by 2030, cashless growth, data exchanges, and near-universal fibre broadband access. Local Governance Model: A VNA report highlights Vietnam’s “people-centred” commune/ward governance model, framing citizen trust and satisfaction as key benchmarks. HCMC Finance Focus: HCMC is pushing credit growth (around 15% in 2026) to fund transport, ports, logistics, high-tech, green growth and an international financial centre. Energy Flexibility Talk: Karpowership discusses floating LNG/bridge power options to support PDP8 and peak demand while longer-term LNG-to-power projects progress. Regional Diplomacy: PM Le Minh Hung’s June 15 phone talks with China’s Li Qiang reaffirm Vietnam’s consistent policy of developing ties with China through trust and action-plan implementation.
