Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The reduction aims to ensure public investment delivers stronger socio-economic returns and provides a foundation for regional development. Resources must be concentrated on projects with broad spillover effects, such as poverty reduction, support for ethnic minority communities, and essential services.

The National Assembly is currently reviewing proposals for new cities and considering projects that require special mechanisms in Vietnam.
