According to the General Secretary, in order for the economy and society to develop, the most important thing is to mobilize all people to participate in labor to create material wealth. Policies and mechanisms to ensure that all economic sectors respond and participate are especially important.
To promote supply-side reform, the General Secretary said that it is necessary to continue institutional reform, improve the business environment, and require the investment and business environment to strive to reduce at least 30% of administrative procedure processing time; at least 30% of business costs, especially customs, regulatory compliance costs, and informal costs; abolish at least 30% of unnecessary business conditions; and strive for Vietnam's investment environment to be among ASEAN's OTP 3 within 2-3 years.
The General Secretary suggested the need to boldly apply a specialized legal framework. He pointed out that currently, Vietnam's legal system still has many points that have not kept up with the development speed of the digital economy, innovation and international integration, especially financial technology, artificial intelligence, platform economy, e-commerce and special economic zones.
Therefore, it is necessary to propose a controlled experimental legal framework for new technology industries; propose a separate legal framework for economic and technology special zones with special preferential tax mechanisms; and a specific mechanism for resolving trade disputes in special zones.
The General Secretary also said that it is necessary to speed up real estate transactions and attract capital into the market. Promote urban areas to become the driving force of national growth with solutions such as: completing a high-quality and synchronous infrastructure system for urban areas; building a national digital map system on planning and land prices; establishing a "National Housing Fund" to develop low-cost housing in large cities.
Apply open financial policies for international financial center models; create a "duty-free port" model to turn Vietnam into a major logistics center; apply a "national investment one-stop portal" to support foreign investors to quickly enter Vietnam; promote the development of science - technology and innovation; thoroughly handle air pollution in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City...
