Vietnam needs over one thousand trillion VND between now and 2020 for transport infrastructure, one of the three strategic breakthroughs on the way to becoming a modern industrialised nation, Deputy Transport Minister Nguyen Ngoc Dong told a seminar in Hanoi on July 8.
Of the sum, over 347 trillion VND (16.5 billion USD) will be sourced from non-State resources and 245 trillion VND (11.6 billion USD) from official development assistance, making up 34.3 percent and 24.1 percent of the total, respectively. 
According to Dong, the transport sector has raised over 370.2 trillion VND (17.6 billion USD), more than 121.8 trillion VND (5.8 billion USD) of which was in the form of build-operate-transfer (BOT) and public-private partnership (PPP).
