In his opening remarks, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh summarized the complex global situation, noting continued military conflicts and prolonged political instability in many places, as well as ongoing trade tensions.
Furthermore, fluctuations in gold prices, real estate, and global financial markets all impact the domestic situation, affecting the market, supply chains, and production chains.
Domestically, the entire nation joyfully celebrated the 80th anniversary of the August Revolution and National Day on September 2nd, demonstrating national pride, creativity, patriotism, and loyalty to the Party. A series of grand and meaningful programs and events were held, particularly the exhibition "80 Years of the Journey to Independence - Freedom - Happiness," the military parade, and many other successful activities.
Regarding the socio-economic situation in August and the first eight months of the year, the Prime Minister assessed the trend as positive, with each month better than the previous one, and the first eight months better than the same period in 2024 in most areas.
Key highlights include macroeconomic stability, controlled inflation, boosted growth, ensured major balances, prioritized cultural and social sectors, guaranteed social security, and improved living standards for the people.
Political and social stability has been maintained; national defense and security have been strengthened; and foreign relations and international integration have been promoted.
However, the Prime Minister requested an analysis of rising inflationary pressures, exchange rates, and interest rates; domestic consumption, exports, and public investment are showing signs of slowing down.
Meanwhile, operating the two-tiered local government model still faces difficulties in digital transformation, data connectivity, and challenges for lower-level officials. In particular, according to the head of government, natural disasters, storms, and floods severely impact people's lives and business production.
Stating that we must develop rapidly and sustainably, and that the growth target of 8.3-8.5% this year is a difficult one, the Prime Minister emphasized that "no matter how difficult, we must do it."
According to him, it is necessary to continue to uphold the high fighting spirit, the spirit of the August Revolution and National Day on September 2nd. A great advantage for us is that the people are deeply patriotic, trust the Party and the State, and are always very creative, as the Prime Minister stated.

The head of government directed that traditional growth drivers must be renewed, and new growth drivers must be promoted to ensure synchronous and comprehensive development.
He requested that ministries and agencies review and streamline administrative procedures, striving to reduce the time, number, and cost of administrative procedures by 30%. Along with that, he urged them to strengthen efforts to definitively resolve outstanding projects, as this is also a solution to unlock resources for development.
The Prime Minister suggested that after the conclusion of the "80 Years of Independence - Freedom - Happiness" Exhibition, further research should be conducted on organizing autumn fairs and Tet (Lunar New Year) fairs to introduce and promote goods and products, foster exchange and linkages in production and business, and boost domestic consumption.
Considering the significant fluctuations in gold prices, the Prime Minister stated that he has instructed relevant agencies to take action to prevent market manipulation, hoarding, and price gouging.
At the same time, according to government leaders, it is necessary to accurately assess recent developments in the stock market and determine whether there is any price manipulation or market rigging. If the money flows into the production and business sectors, that would be very good, according to the Prime Minister.
Government leaders have called for solutions to respond to external shocks, climate change, and natural disasters; and for immediate and strict handling of negative phenomena and violations related to market manipulation, hoarding, price gouging, smuggling, counterfeit goods, and imitation products.
The Prime Minister requested that the Deputy Prime Ministers in charge get involved, and that relevant agencies demonstrate a higher sense of responsibility, grasping the situation more thoroughly and firmly in their areas of management and responsibility, especially with new developments and emerging issues.
In addition, according to the Prime Minister, a more thorough analysis is needed to formulate appropriate tasks and solutions, and to respond with timely, flexible, and effective policies, including those related to the gold market, real estate market, and stock market...
