Hanoi, one of the localities having the highest number of coronavirus infections, has been praised for its effective handling of the virus. Together with other localities, it has resumed economic activities in late April after a three-week national social distancing campaign.
To fulfil the growth rate of 7.5% in 2020, Hanoi's economy needs to expand 8.6% for the remaining three quarters. It has taken a series of bold measures to facilitate businesses namely speeding up administrative reforms, simplifying loan approval procedures, boosting agriculture industry, and cutting regular expenditures.
