On the afternoon of August 21, the Ministry of Industry and Trade - Ministry of Finance informed that the world oil market from August 11 to 20 was affected by concerns surrounding China's weak economic activity, the appreciation of the USD, the decrease in US crude oil reserves, China using oil reserves to prevent OPEC+ from cutting supplies to push oil prices up... The above factors caused oil prices from August 11 to August 20 to fluctuate up and down.

In response to the developments in world oil prices and current regulations, the joint ministries decided not to set up the Price Stabilization Fund for all oil products; not to spend the Fund on gasoline, diesel, kerosene and stop spending the Fund on fuel oil (previously spent 150 VND/kg).
