More than 360,000 billion VND of public investment capital is waiting for disbursement.

This year, Vietnam must disburse over 1,000 billion VND in public investment capital (including the Prime Minister's plan and local budget balance capital). According to the Ministry of Finance 's report, in the first 11 months, the country has disbursed 553,250 billion VND, reaching nearly 61% of the Prime Minister's plan. Although the absolute figure is about 155,700 billion VND higher than the same period last year, this rate is still lower than expected in the context that the Government set a disbursement target of 95-100% to support GDP growth of 8.3-8.5%.

Thus, over 360,000 billion VND of public capital is waiting to be disbursed from now until the deadline of January 31, 2026.

In a telegram dated December 6, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh said that the 2025 public capital disbursement plan has only 55 days left, while the amount of capital remaining is very large. He "severely criticized" the units that were late and requested that this be identified as a key political task, linked to the responsibility of the head. According to the Ministry of Finance, there are currently 22 ministries, central agencies and 12 localities with disbursement rates lower than the national average.

To achieve the goal of disbursing 100% of public capital, the Prime Minister requested ministries, branches and localities to immediately remove two current bottlenecks: site clearance and licensing of mines and exploitation of raw materials. Units must publicly disclose weekly disbursement data.

Ministries and sectors should immediately review the disbursement progress of each project to have a plan to transfer capital from unused and surplus areas to projects with good disbursement and in need of additional capital this year.

The Ministry of Finance is assigned to monitor and report to the Government a list of "sluggish" units to have flexible management solutions.

Vietnam plans to complete 3,000 km of expressway, 1,000 km of coastal road this year, and start construction on the Hanoi - Lao Cai - Hai Phong railway... Public resources play an important role as "seed capital" in investing in key infrastructure projects.

Public investment is identified as one of the important solutions and driving forces to help recover and promote high growth. According to calculations, in the 2021-2025 period, if disbursed public investment capital increases by 1%, GDP can increase by 0.058 percentage points.
