The General Department of Vietnam Customs said the country had a trade deficit worth 400 million USD in November, equivalent to 1.9 percent of total export value.
The consumer price index (CPI) of Hanoi saw a decrease of 0.26 percent in November against the previous month and down 4.17 percent year-on-year, announced the city’s Department of Statistics.
