The contribution of the FDI sector is still the largest in Vietnam’s trade structure.
This enterprise cited, in 2021, the FDI sector contributed to 74% of total export turnover. This reflects that exports are heavily dependent on the foreign-invested economic sector, but it is also creating many potential uncertainties for the economy.
“The export market shares the proportion of most key products are carried out by FDI enterprises. This reflects the limited competitiveness of domestic enterprises and the lack of linkage between domestic enterprises and FDI enterprises,” said delegate Nguyen Duy Minh.

Addressing the discussion, delegate Ta Thi Yen (Dien Bien) proposed to clarify a number of issues, contributing to further removing difficulties for the economy to develop more sustainably and the people’s quality of life to be improved.
Specifically, about the slow and unsatisfactory disbursement of public investment capital, the inspection report of the Economic Committee of the National Assembly clearly stated that the amount of undisbursed capital construction investment of the Central Government is 71.6 billion VND, of which 16 billion VND of national target programs have not been allocated or disbursed in 2021.
The disbursement of ODA loans only reached 32.85% of the plan and many ministries and branches reached less than 20%. This situation has lasted for many years, it has been slow to be overcome and the slow disbursement of foreign capital still incurs management fees.
“This gives rise to unnecessary, wasteful and inefficient state budget expenditures. In addition, the money invested is mainly borrowed money and is subject to interest and management fees, therefore, slow disbursement will lead to an increase in total investment, a decrease in investment efficiency, and a decrease in investment efficiency and capital use,” said delegate Ta Thi Yen.
Strengthening controls to point out which organizations and individuals are responsible for this delayed implementation is necessary for the State’s decisions to be seriously, effectively and effectively implemented, meeting the requirements of the Government to meet the expectations of the people.
