Green Economy

Vietnam is entering a new phase of industrial development as its manufacturing base moves toward higher-value and technology-intensive industries and industrial parks are adapting to meet requirements.

Ongoing fine-tuning is required to ensure that the extended producer responsibility (EPR) policies Vietnam has introduced are operating efficiently and transparently.

Vietnam has maintained its appeal as a popular destination for foreign investment over the years and is now introducing a new framework to draw in and benefit from modern technology projects.

The sea must become a strategic development space, focusing on seaports, shipping, logistics, island tourism, high-tech aquaculture, and new maritime economic sectors, noted General Secretary and President To Lam.

Vietnam’s new energy challenge is to align AI-driven growth with green investment and net-zero ambitions.
