In his opening remarks, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh emphasized that we have passed the first month of the third quarter. In the context of the international and regional situation continuing to develop complicatedly, difficulties and challenges continue to outweigh opportunities and advantages.

In the world, growth remains low while consumer demand remains weak, protectionist barriers are increasing… Many countries continue to maintain tight monetary policies; public debt pressure, bad corporate debt, risks in financial, monetary, and real estate markets remain high in some countries; some new risks and challenges to global food security have emerged.

Extreme weather conditions occur in many places, with widespread droughts, storms, floods, and natural disasters in many countries.

Domestically, there are more difficulties and challenges than opportunities and advantages, when under double impact, having to withstand pressure from both inside and outside, handle current problems, and overcome difficulties that have existed for many years.

In that context, all levels, sectors and localities have made outstanding efforts, resolutely, synchronously and focusedly implementing the proposed tasks and solutions.

Thereby, in July and 7 months of the year, we basically achieved the general goals of 2023 with the results of each month better than the previous month, each quarter better than the previous quarter. However, there are still shortcomings, limitations, difficulties and problems.

In August, there are many events, including the 78th anniversary of the August Revolution, but it is also a time when storms and natural disasters often occur; there are many tasks and work, both regular and unexpected, and backlogs to handle.
