Vietnam’s economic situation changed significantly after the 6th National Party Congress, with decisions to remove production bottlenecks, ease circulation of goods, and adopt a multi-sectoral economic policy. In particular, opening the door for private enterprises to develop freely in all sectors not prohibited by law helped transform the economy.

Vietnam will launch the 2026 Economic Census in January next year to develop a comprehensive overview of production and business activities across all economic sectors nationwide.

VOV.VN - Professor Carl Thayer, a leading expert on Vietnam at the Australian Defence Force Academy (University of New South Wales), has affirmed that after 80 years of national development and reform, Vietnam is emerging as one of the fastest-growing economies in Southeast Asia.

The InnoEx Business Innovation Forum 2025 officially opened in Ho Chi Minh City on August 21, under the theme “Shaping the Future Economy: From Data to Digital Assets.”

VOV.VN - The informal sector has long played a vital role in Vietnam’s economy, but it remains a “gray zone”, difficult to regulate and lacking policy support. Experts believe that with the right measures to promote formalization, it could become a strong driver, enabling the private economy to emerge as a true pillar of national development.

Vietnam is a dynamic economy in a really dynamic economic region and what Australia wants to be is a partner in that development which benefits both countries and the region, Australian Minister for Foreign Affairs Penny Wong told the press during her ongoing official visit to Vietnam from August 19-21.

Vietnam is moving closer to its goal of becoming Asia’s next “tiger economy,” driven by strong reforms and a vision for ushering in “a new era of development” in the future, according to the US-based Associated Press (AP).

VOV.VN - The country's bold and effective development path has earned praise from international financial institutions, economists and diplomats amid global economic uncertainties.

VOV.VN - In recent months, hostile forces have targeted the Politburo’s Resolution No. 68-NQ/TW on private sector development, twisting its content to claim that the Party now regards the private sector as “the most important driving force,” thereby sidelining the state economy and steering Vietnam toward capitalism.

In the context of the growing global digital economy, digital transformation and the promotion of e-commerce are key drivers helping Vietnam boost integration, enhance competitiveness, and expand export markets, according to the Vietnam E-commerce and Digital Economy Agency (IDEA) under the Ministry of Industry and Trade.
