In response to why the forum topic was selected, the chairman of the Economic Committee, Vu Hong Thanh, stated that the organisation of the Socio-Economic Forum in 2023 is determined by two significant connotations. After more than two years of fighting the COVID-19 pandemic, the first implication is to identify the internal issues and bottlenecks in the economy. The need to eliminate bottlenecks and find sustainable development solutions is urgent.
The second meaning is to discover and generate new motivation to foster economic growth in the present context. Mr. Vu Hong Thanh believes that Vietnam's economic outlook remains bright despite global economic challenges and risks.
The significance of this forum is heightened by the fact that Vietnam's economy has achieved positive results, such as inflation control and economic balance, and continues to seek ways to maintain and grow sustainably.
