Vietnam held a national conference to disseminate the Politburo's Resolution No. 10‑NQ/TW, which seeks to enhance the quality and effectiveness of foreign direct investment, promote technology transfer, improve governance and create high‑value jobs. Top leader To Lam urged the political system, businesses and investors to translate the resolution’s policies into concrete projects and stronger enterprises. Prime Minister Le Minh Hung called for deeper collaboration with partners on trade, innovation, AI, quantum technology and semiconductors.
