According to the Government Office, Deputy Prime Minister Vuong Dinh Hue hosted a meeting on February 9 to prepare for the conference. At the conference with the Prime Minister, support to businesses, pledges and action programmes on Resolution No 35/2016/NQ-CP on supporting and developing enterprises over the next five years of each city and province will be mentioned.

The health of State-owned enterprises and foreign invested firms will also be on the conference’s agenda. Further, the conference is expected to mention measures to attract investment in agriculture and rural development, along with the development of startups.

The conference is among the Government’s four most important events for 2017. The three others are the conference on shrimp production held early this week, the conference on development of material sources for the pharmaceutical industry and the conference on reviewing five years of implementing the 2012 Law on Cooperatives.

The first meeting between the Prime Minister and the Vietnamese business community was held in April last year with the theme "Vietnamese enterprises - the country’s economic development force". It aimed at realising the Prime Minister’s message that the Government will create favourable conditions for startup businesses and boost the development of enterprises in terms of both quantity and quality.

The PM emphasized that his presence at the meeting along with more than half of Cabinet members of Laos showed the importance they attach to the Vietnamese investors and their wish to find out about problems hindering Vietnamese firms’ operation for timely solutions. 

The PM will ask the Vietnamese investors to sympathise and cooperate in improving the working mechanisms and management capacity. During the dialogue, the PM will answer questions of Vietnamese enterprises.
