Mr. Minh briefed the participants on Vietnamese efforts to reform, proactively integrate into the world, reduce trade barriers, enhance national management capability, create a favorable environment for investors, and promote international trade. The Vietnamese government’s efforts, together with the international community’s support, have considerably contributed to economic growth, poverty reduction, developing Vietnam into a middle-income country focused on environmental protection and social equality. Vietnam calls on the international community to maintain their support for low middle-income countries and the shifting economies. Mr. Minh said Vietnam has assisted less-developed countries through South-South cooperation and trilateral cooperation with an international sponsor. Vietnam hopes that developed countries and the international community will continue its support for this effort.
