Priority should continue to be given to maintaining macroeconomic stability, controlling inflation, spurring growth and ensuring major balances of the economy, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh said at the Government’s February meeting on March 3 in Hanoi.
More than 55 trillion VND (2.33 billion USD) has been disbursed so far to financially support people and enterprises hurt by the COVID-19 as part of the national socio-economic recovery and development programme, according to a report by the Ministry of Planning and Investment.
Deputy Prime Minister Le Minh Khai has ordered the acceleration of the disbursement of financial packages serving the socio-economic recovery programme, particularly rent subsidy for workers as well as support in terms of interest rate for firms and cooperatives.
Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh on March 16 signed Dispatch No. 252/CD-TTg asking for more drastic measures to implement the socio-economic recovery and development programme.
Minister of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs Dao Ngoc Dung has said that the socio-economic recovery programme set out by the Party and State is reachable if social welfare and safety of people are ensured.
