According to a survey of the United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (ESCAP) released in Hanoi on May 14, the Vietnamese economy is forecast to increase moderately at 6.1-6.2% thanks to improving exports, investment and household purchasing demand.
Vietnam’s inflation fell from double-digits to 4.1% in 2014 and would be 2.5% in 2015.
ESCAP Executive Secretary Shamshad Akhtar urged Asia-Pacific governments to mobilise domestic resources, especially those from the private sector for sustainable development.
