Deputy PM asks Hanoi to speed up public investment disbursement
As of August 22, Hanoi had disbursed only 27.1 per cent of the public investment capital set aside in the annual plan, or lower than the national average. At a meeting with city leaders on August 26, Deputy Prime Minister Le Van Thanh asked that an additional 9 per cent of the annual plan be disbursed by December 31.

Public investment disbursement needs concerted push
Vietnam had disbursed just 63.86 per cent of the public investment plan assigned by the Prime Minister as of November 30; a decline year-on-year. Permanent Deputy Prime Minister Pham Binh Minh therefore asked that the heads of relevant ministries and agencies uphold their responsibility and that strict inspections and supervision be boosted to accelerate disbursement.
