SOCIO-ECONOMIC PERFORMANCE OF VIETNAM IN 2014

Part I
We have realized tasks set for 2014 against the global backdrop of profoundly complicated changes. The world economic recovery has been slower compared to previous forecast. Conflicts have occurred in many places around the globe. Tensions in the East China Sea and East Sea have arisen.
Domestically, macro-economy was basically stable and inflation was put under control. Economic growth has gradually recovered but business environment, productivity, efficiency, and economic competitiveness still remained low while the requirements for international integration become increasingly high. Demand for socio-economic development and national defense and security was enormous while the resources were limited. China’s brazen placement of its oil rig in Viet Nam’s waters regardless of international law seriously threatens the country’s peace, stability and socio-economic development.

Amidst huge challenges and difficulties, under the leadership of the Party Central Committee, the Government has deployed a string of drastic and comprehensive solutions to realize the tasks figured out in the 2014 plan in line with the National Assembly’s Resolution. Task review, evaluation, adjustment and supplementation have been conducted on a monthly basis.
Thanks to the joint efforts of the whole political system, compatriots and business community, our country continued gaining positive socio-economic progress. On the basis of the first-nine-month achievements and those estimated to obtain for the rest of the year, the Government would like to report on socio-economic situation in 2014 and tasks for 2015 as follows:


1. Macro-economy
Inflation was put under control and macro-economy was more stable. The consumer price index fell sharply, rising 2.25% in the nine-month period – the lowest rate over the past decade; the index is forecast to increase by less than 5% this year. Interest rates dropped by 2% compared to last year’s end. The first-nine-month credit growth was 7.26% compared with 6.87% of the same period last year and is expect to expand 12-14% as planned. Exchange rate and foreign currency market were stable; foreign reserve set new record. Confidence in the dong was restored.

Exports grew fairly high, with the revenue increasing 14.4% in the first nine months, of which local businesses’ export value augmented 13% (compared to 3% of the same period last year). Many export items soared (pepper up 41.5%, coffee up 31%, footwear up 24.5%, cashew up 23.7%, aquaculture 23.7%, machines-equipment-spare parts up 22.1%, garments up 19%, phones and electronic equipment up 11.3%). Imports surged 11.6%, mainly machines, equipment and materials. This year’s combined export and import values are estimated at US$148 billion and US$146.5 billion, up 12.1% and 11% respectively. Trade balance, current account, and balance of payment continued to run surpluses.

State budget revenue in the first nine months rose 17.2% against the same period last year and is expected to surpass the preset target of 10.6%. Budget spending was ensured as planned and in urgent emerging cases. Budget overspending was equal to 5.3% of the GDP. Public debt, Government debt, national foreign debt were still within the limits allowed by the National Assembly in its Resolution No. 10/2011/QH13.

Total investment capital in the first nine months climbed 10.3% against the same period last year and is estimated at 30.1% of the GDP. Non-State sectors’ investment capital was estimated to rise 12.8% in the first nine months and about 5.45% for the whole year. Disbursed FDI volume was estimated to reach US$8.9 billion, up 3.2% in the first nine months and US$12.5 billion, up 8.7% for the whole year. ODA disbursement went up 10% to US$4.1 billion in the first nine months and is estimated to increase 7.1% to US$5.5 billion this year. Investment capital sourced from budget and Government bonds was projected to increase 18.3%.

Market and price management was strengthened; milk prices for children under six dipped as much as 34% for several categories, bid prices for drugs fell down by 25-30% on average. The Government continued with the roadmap for market-oriented regulation of prices of petroleum, electricity, coal, clean water, education and healthcare services, etc along with subsidies for the poor and policy beneficiaries. Prevention and control of smuggling and trade fraud were spurred.

Macro-economy and major balances of the economy were not really stable. Budget overspending was high. Public debts rose quickly. The Government’s direct debt obligations accounted for 14.2% of the annual State budget revenue in 2014 (compared to the cap of 25% as stipulated in the Government’s public debt strategy), however the figure was estimated at 26.2% if borrowed money for loan rescheduling, payment and refunding were included. Total demand rose slowly. Credit growth remained weak in the first months of this year. Non-performing loans (NPLs) was high while NPLs settlement made little progress. Resource mobilization for development failed to meet requirements. The stock market development was not stable. The real estate market recovered slowly. The ratio of domestic sectors’ export value remained modest. The efficiency of market management, trade fraud and transfer pricing prevention was not high.

2. Economic growth and business environment
A series of measures were deployed to reform administrative procedures and business environment and improve competitiveness, especially in such areas like tax, customs, social insurance, credit, land, construction, business establishment and dissolution, investment procedures, electricity access among others. As a result, the business environment has been improved, domestic and foreign resources have been better mobilized and used for development. The volume of investment capital registered by newly-established businesses surged up 13.9%, additional investment per each business rocketed 24.6% on average; the number of businesses resuming production picked up 5.1%.

The economy kept on growing, with 5.09% in the first quarter, 5.25% in the second quarter, 6.10% in the third quarter and 5.62% between January and September, higher compared to the same periods of the two previous years, and is estimated to expand 5.8% for the whole year. Industrial production, agricultural production, and service sector expanded 6.7%, 3.5%, and nearly 6% respectively. Total retail sales of consumer goods and services augmented 11.1% (6.2% if price factors are deducted). The number of international arrivals soared 10.4% to 6 million in the first nine months and is estimated to increase to about 8 million this year.

The business environment and competitiveness have been slowly improved. Administrative procedures remained cumbersome. Businesses still faced difficulties, including credit access. Financial and governance capacity of the majority of local businesses remained limited. The number of dissolved/suspended businesses was high. The ratio of non-public sectors’ investment shrank.

3. Economic restructuring
Generally, the economy has been restructured actively, focusing on strengthening management, improving institutions and policies, speeding up the restructuring of public investment, credit organizations, State-owned enterprises and agriculture in combination with the building of new-style rural areas.

The Government has submitted the draft Law on Public Investment to the National Assembly, renovated investment management on the basis of medium-term plans, steered capital to key projects to overcome scattered investment. Investment decisions were only issued on the basis of identifying clear capital sources and capital allocation capacity. Settlement of capital construction debts was strengthened and newly-groundbroken projects were closely monitored. Mechanisms and policies, especially those related to public-private partnership were further improved to lure non-public sectors’ investment.

The realization of the Project on restructuring credit organizations has been fostered. Weak joint-stock commercial banks have been basically restructured, the number of credit organizations reduced by seven ones, credit organizations’ financial capacity was enhanced and banking system safety was guaranteed. Some 53.6% of the total NPLs of credit organizations were reclaimed, restructured, and purchased by the Viet Nam Asset Management Company (VAMC).

A number of solutions for SOEs restructuring have been introduced, focusing on equitization, divestment, improvement of corporate governance and production efficiency, as well as the promulgation of new policies for facilitating equitization and divestment process. Over the past nine months, 71 SOEs were restructured compared to 74 in 2013, 200 for this year and the target of 432 for the 2014-2015 period, and the values of 123 SOEs were made public. Divestment volume was estimated at VND 3,500 billion or 3.6 times higher than that of 2013. Most of corporations and groups made profits, ensured State capital, and raised contributions to State budget. Restructuring agriculture and forestry companies has been under way in accordance with the Political Bureau’s Resolution.

Agricultural restructuring was beefed up in combination with the building of new-style rural areas. Policies were introduced to support plant structure shift, animal husbandry development, aquaculture farming, afforestation; encourage businesses’ investment in agriculture and rural development, application of scientific and technological advances, and agricultural mechanization. The models of large-scale rice fields, land concentration, production and business connectivity and cooperation were multiplied. The building of new-style rural areas reaped positive achievements with 790 communes satisfying 19 criteria (accounting for 8.8%).

Industrial structure moved positively with rising ratio of manufacturing and processing and falling rate of mineral exploitation. Many projects on electronics, energy, infrastructure development, etc have contributed to accelerating the industrial structure, exports, job creation and growth. Investment was expanded in potential service sectors like telecommunication, finance-banking, healthcare, transport, logistics, aviation, tourism and trade, etc.

Economic restructuring was sluggish. Productivity, quality and competitiveness remained low. Technological innovation pace failed to meet the requirements. High-tech and auxiliary industries developed slowly. The share of manufacturing and service in the GDP was lower compared to other regional countries. Domestic businesses have not deeply participated in the global production network and value chain. Preset targets were not achieved in restructuring agriculture. Public investment restructuring was slowly carried out [by some agencies and localities] and capital construction debts remained huge; foreign investment inflows in infrastructure development were still modest. Some weak credit organizations still existed. SOEs restructuring was not effectively carried out and the performance of many SOEs remained poor.

4. Strategic breakthroughs
The Plan for the realization of the 2013 Constitution, program on law and ordinance building, and National Assembly’s Resolution N0. 67/2013/QH13, have been actively deployed. The Government focused on promulgating legal documents on detailed implementation of laws, improving the socialist-oriented market economy institutions and promoting the citizens’ right to democracy.

Promulgation of guidance documents with improving quality was sped up. Due attention was paid to the enforcement of laws and resolutions approved by the National Assembly. The Regulations on monitoring the fulfillment of duties delegated by the Government and the Prime Minister were introduced.

The Government’s Resolution on improving the business environment and national competitiveness was implemented. Administrative reform was accelerated and brought about positive outcomes.

Review and correct education organization at tertiary establishments; expand the pilot model of progressive education.

Focus on site clearance, especially at key national projects. Accelerate the progress of many key and modern projects on transport, electricity, irrigation, urban infrastructure, information system, etc to serve socio-economic development and national defense and security.

Socialist-oriented market economy institutions have been slowly improved, thus failing to create a real breakthrough for socio-economic development. The outcomes of administration reform and legal system improvement were not as expected. Disciplines and rules were not strictly observed in somewhere. Inspection efficiency remained limited. Policies were not good enough to quickly develop and use high-quality workforce. The quality of tertiary education and vocational training was limited. The ratio of trained labor was not as high as expected. Application of science and technology was slow. Resources for infrastructure development remained modest, non-State resources were not mobilized effectively, corresponding capital for ODA and public-private partnership projects was insufficient. Traffic infrastructure network failed to meet multi-modal requirements. Logistics services developed slowly and synchronously. Maintenance of infrastructure works received inadequate attention and lack resources. Many irrigation and transport works degraded gravely. Urban infrastructure was not synchronous, overloaded and its quality was low.

5. Culture and society
Amidst economic hardship, State budget was still allocated along with non-state mobilized capital for cultural and social development and social welfare.

All relevant policies were reviewed. Over 1.5 million people received regular preferential allowances and around 48 million houses were built or repaired, of which 13,500 houses were funded by non-State sources. Identification of remains of revolutionary martyrs and their dossiers received due attention. The movement “paying the debt of gratitude” was strengthened.

Promulgate legal documents guiding implementation of the Labor Code and the Law on Employment. Focus on job creation, especially for people whose land revoked by the State and those in ethnic minority and extremely disadvantaged areas. In the first nine months, 1.18 million people found jobs, of which 83,000 guest workers were sent abroad, up 32.6% against the same period last year, and the whole year’s figure is estimated at 1.58-1.6 million.

Enhance State management over information and communication. Press activities meet increasingly high and diverse demand of people, positively contributing to social consensus in national development and protection.

The outcomes of poverty reduction were not stable and the rich-poor gap remained wide. Labor structure slowly changed. The majority of ethnic people were still poor. A part of rural inhabitants still faced hard life both in terms of material and spiritual aspects. The number of people, especially the youth, who were unemployed or had unstable jobs was high. Insurance debts and late premium payment remained popular. Resources for ensuring social security and assistance were insufficient. Public healthcare failed to meet the requirements. Ensuring food safety and hygiene faced difficulties. There remained shortcomings in State management over culture, arts, sports, information and communication. Cyber security and safety were not well guaranteed. Social evils were complicated in many places.

6. Resources management, environmental protection, active response to climate change, and natural disaster prevention
Actively deploy the Party Central Committee’s Resolution, review and improve mechanisms and policies to tighten State management over resources, environmental protection and climate change adaptation.

The exploitation and use of natural resources were tightened with an increase in budget revenue from granting licenses for mineral exploitation. Active efforts were made in realizing the Land Law, building land survey database, streamlining administrative procedures, especially those relating to land allocation, land lease, and granting of land use right certificates (which cover 93.8% of land area). Management, protection and use of water resources were strengthened. The operating process of inter-reservoirs in river basins was completed.

Enhance inspection and handling of establishments that caused serious environmental pollution and infringe environmental stipulation. Programs on rural clean water supply and environmental hygiene, climate change adaptation were effectively deployed. Hydro-meteorological observation, disaster warning and forecasting systems were strengthened. Many projects on climate change adaptation in combination with natural disaster prevention were launched. The awareness and capacity of natural disaster prevention were heightened. Many major environmental targets were positively realized.

Environmental pollution still rose in many places and has been slowly overcome in river basins, rural areas and craft villages. Resources for climate change adaption and natural disaster prevention were modest. Consequences of natural disasters were immense. Inundation was slowly overcome in some cities. Marine resource investigations were not effectively carried out. There were shortcomings in mineral management and exploitation, not to mention environmental protection.

7. Anti-corruption, thrift practice and anti-wastefulness
Continue to improve institutions and legal regulations on detailed implementation of laws. Beef up the realization of the Action plan on anti-corruption, anti-wastefulness and thrift practice.

Responsibility and coordination in citizen reception have been improved. Most of the leasders of ministries, agencies and localities have directly engaged in direct conversations with and settled complaints lodged by citizens. Around 85% of newly-emerged complaints and denunciations and 494 out of 528 prolonged cases were settled.

Anti-corruption and anti-wastefulness failed to meet requirements. The review, amendment and supplementation of the stipulation on corruption and wastefulness prevention and control remained slow. Measures to counter corruption in many agencies were not effectively carried out. Some cases have been slowly processed. The efficiency of inspection was not high. The rate of reclaiming corrupted assets was low. Judicial expertise proved to be inadequate. The waste of time and resources remained great. Some ministries, agencies and localities did not pay due attention to citizen reception, settlement of complaints and denunciations. There were a lot of land-related complaints.

8. National defense, security and diplomacy
Actively carry out the Party Central Committee’s Resolution to on the Fatherland protection Strategy in the new context. National defense and security potential and national defense posture were consolidated. Combined power and combat readiness of the army forces were reinforced. Timely smash acts of encroaching on the national security. Resolutely safeguard national sovereignty over sea and islands with proper measures and maintain peaceful and stable environment for socio-economic development.

Ensure social order and safety; strengthen crime prevention and combat with many gangs having been cracked down. Resolutely stop acts of violating laws, quickly stabilize the situation caused by China’s illegal placement of an oil rig in our country’s waters and provide appropriate support for affected laborers and enterprises for early resumption of production and business. The number of accidents, deaths and injuries continued to fall thanks to drastic efforts.

Diplomatic activities and international integration have been fostered. Fruitfully deploy the Program on diplomatic activities of the leaders of the Party and the State and the Action plan on international integration. Continue to deepen relations with partners, especially strategic and comprehensive partners. Actively accelerate the negotiations on free trade agreements both at bilateral and multilateral levels. Gain sympathy and support from the international community for country’s just stance and measures to safeguard its sovereignty over sea and islands. Actively join the building of ASEAN Community. Play a responsible role in the United Nations, and other multilateral organizations and forums. Effectively protect Vietnamese abroad.

The protection of the national sovereignty still faced numerous challenges. National defense and security required huge investments amid limited resources. There remained pressing social issues and complicated crimes. The ratio of raffic accidents was high. International integration, to some extent, was active spurred and the settlement of international commercial disputes was not effective. Modest outcomes were achieved in luring overseas Vietnamese to pour investment and participate in scientific and technological activities in Viet Nam.

In general, despite numerous difficulties and challenges, shortcomings and weaknesses, positive outcomes have been gained in almost all fields like economy, culture, social aspect, national defense, security, and diplomacy; people’s life have been improved, national sovereignty has been guaranteed; politics and society were stable; our country’s position continued to be heightened. Targets and tasks set out by the National Assembly have been basically fulfilled. It is estimated that 13 out of 14 targets for 2014 will be achieved. This is the concerted effort of the whole Party, people and army.
