"When researching, I saw that the relationship between GDP and science and technology potential is drawn as an upward parabolic graph. That means when GDP grows, the level of science increases and when the whole world is on a common line, Vietnam stands upright. Compared to our GDP level, the science potential doubles," Mr. Binh stated and suggested removing bottlenecks and unleashing the potential in science and technology.
In particular, the Chairman of FPT mentioned the concept of "popular AI" (artificial intelligence). During the years of resistance when the government was still weak and poor, Uncle Ho raised the issue of "popular education". According to him, this Tet holiday we hear a lot about DeepSeek - "popularizing artificial intelligence" showing that small, medium and small enterprises can participate in AI.
"The opportunity is coming, I suggest that AI be included in the education and training programs of all education systems as soon as possible and we are the ones who directly deploy it into the education system. The most important thing is the role of the State, directing it so that Vietnam soon becomes a country of artificial intelligence...", Mr. Binh proposed.
High-speed rail and opportunities for the steel industry
Mr. Tran Dinh Long, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Hoa Phat Group Joint Stock Company, shared that "each enterprise is a cell of the economy", the group committed to develop at least 15% in the period of 2025 - 2030. Currently, the entire Vietnamese steel industry imports about 30 million tons of ore as raw materials for steel production, accounting for 95%.
With the Thach Khe iron mine (Ha Tinh), the largest in Southeast Asia, with a capacity of about 500 million tons, if exploited, it will fundamentally solve the source of raw materials and save foreign currency. The Chairman of Hoa Phat also emphasized the "great opportunity for steel enterprises", especially the urban railway projects in Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, and the Lao Cai - Hanoi - Hai Phong railway project.
In the near future, Hoa Phat may invest in a rail manufacturing plant, investing 10,000 billion VND. "This is a very special product, if it is not used for the project, we do not know who to sell it to. We really hope to have a resolution so that businesses can confidently invest and manufacture the product," said Mr. Long. Hoa Phat also committed to ensuring the supply of steel for the Vietnam Railway Corporation, with a quantity of 10 million tons, quality, delivery schedule and price lower than import price.

Early implementation of direct electricity trading mechanism
Mr. Le Van Kiem, Chairman of KN Holdings, said that the group is focusing on encouraged fields such as renewable energy and green industrial parks.
Regarding renewable energy, Mr. Kiem proposed that the Government soon approve the adjusted Power Plan VIII, as well as the Plan for deploying renewable energy sources until 2030. For solar energy projects, it is necessary to invest in battery storage systems to ensure optimal operation and to ensure that the system is not overloaded.
Decree 80/2024/ND-CP of the Government on the direct electricity purchase and sale mechanism was issued in July 2024, but there are still no detailed guiding circulars, nor specific regulations on related fees. Mr. Kiem expressed his hope that the Government will soon direct the completion of the legal framework so that Decree 80 can quickly come into practice, helping businesses access clean energy.
KN Holdings also proposed that the Government have support policies to form industrial infrastructure - projects that are the driving force for regional development, forming industry clusters.
At the same time, continue to simplify administrative procedures, allowing simultaneous implementation of investment licensing steps, helping businesses quickly deploy investments and soon put projects into operation.
