By Tuan Minh 15:54, 2014/07/09
Despite facing many difficulties, the index of industrial production ticked up in the first six months.

The Ministry of Industry and Trade (MoIT) predicts it may surge 6.0-6.5% in the second half of the year.

To achieve this growth, the focus will be on using effectively investment capital, fully exploring production capacity and market demand.

At the same time, incentive policies should remain the focus to attract foreign investment and boostdomestic production in the fields of support industry, mechanical engineering, agriculture, chemicals, and light industry.

According to the General Statistics Office (GSO), Vietnam’s industrial production index bounced back in 2013 when it was up 5.9% compared to a year earlier.
