A framework agreement signed between the two countries has taken bilateral relations to a new level, Finland’s Ambassador to Vietnam Kari Kahiluoto has said.

The effective realization of the five-year public investment plan stays central in further improving Vietnam’s socio-economic development in short-, medium- and long-term, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh has said.

The Covid-19 pandemic has significantly impacted the construction progress of public projects across the country.

Hanoi would continue to speed up construction progress and public investment, identified as a major solution to spur economic growth and further attract investment capital to the city, said the city’s mayor.
