Minister stresses support for businesses to join supply chainsMinister of Industry and Trade Tran Tuan Anh has emphasised the need to change policies and mechanisms to encourage businesses to participate in national, regional and global supply chains. However, he said, there are only more than 1,800 businesses operating in the support industry, of which 0.32 percent of them are involved in the manufacturing and processing sector. Assistance should also be offered to domestic firms in joining supply chains, he said, adding that the quality of human resources needs to be improved to spur the support industry. Speaking on ineffective investment projects, Minister Anh said the steering committee for dealing with those projects have built plans to handle the 12 key projects. Minister Anh stressed that besides the economic aspect, another important issue is to handle law violations of individuals and units in those projects.
