32 localities nationwide vow to create favourable business climate

Accordingly, another 32 cities and provinces across the nation have pledged to creating optimal conditions for businesses, raising the total number of localities to more than 40.
The commitments are in accordance with the Government’s Resolution No. 35 on supporting and developing enterprises by 2020.
Speaking at the signing ceremony, Deputy Prime Minister (PM) Vuong Dinh Hue, who is also head of the Steering Committee for Business Innovation and Development, called on local administrations to establish hotlines and organise talks with businesses biannually to solve their problems.
The Deputy PM suggested these localities should set up funds to provide loans to small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs).

VCCI Chairman Vu Tien Loc said the commitments reflect the localities’ long-term vision for business development while affirming the important role played by private firms in national industrialisation and modernisation, contributing to raising the national economy’s competitiveness.
