We cannot move “steadily”After the 14th Party Congress, Vietnam entered what has been described as a “new era” with the ambition of double-digit growth. Vo Hong Phuc: I fully support the objective set by the 14th Party Congress - to build a new era of development for Vietnam. I believe the direction outlined by General Secretary To Lam - opening a new era and a new phase of development - is correct. Without institutional openness, double-digit growth is unrealistic. Maintaining that while targeting double-digit growth would endanger macroeconomic stability.
