A move to increase the base salary for civil servants is necessary to raise the standard of living conditions for Vietnamese people.

Vietnamese Government and officials vow to make improvements to the regulatory system and foster foreign investment in the future.

Such goods would be treated the same as humanitarian or non-refundable aid.

The success of foreign investors is the success of Vietnam, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh has said.

Businesses are now allowed to self-conduct the Covid-19 test, while localities have the authorization to decide when to resume economic activities.

The prime minister reaffirmed Vietnam’s commitment to strengthening the Vietnam-US comprehensive partnership.

A Government task force would be set up to address concerns from businesses and people affected by the pandemic.

The support program is set to take effect in 2021.

More opportunities are arising to strengthen cooperation between Vietnam and the US in finance- and monetary related issues to boost their respective economic recoveries in the post-Covid-19 pandemic.

The seven major areas include finance, banking, and aviation industries.
