Vietnam President To Lam calls for trade-facilitating legislative reforms

Vietnamese President and General Secretary To Lam has called for legislative reforms aimed at reducing operational costs for businesses and improving the flow of goods. During a debate with the Hanoi National Assembly delegation, To Lam emphasized that the success of laws should be measured by their ability to facilitate trade, improve services, and protect citizen rights.

The discussions focused on amending the Law on Postal Services and the Law on Measurement. To Lam noted that existing regulations in these rapidly growing sectors no longer meet current socio-economic demands. He specifically highlighted that precise measurement is critical to preventing economic losses, protecting corporate reputations, and ensuring accuracy in judicial decisions.

In international developments, Swiss Federation President Guy Parmelin is scheduled to visit Vietnam from October 17-18 at the invitation of To Lam. The visit aims to seek broader and more substantive cooperation between the two nations.
