Vice President Dang Thi Ngoc Thinh praised businesses in Hanoi for their role in generating stable jobs for 2.5 million people, implementing Hanoi’s socio-economic goals, and participating in social security programs. “We need a breakthrough in reforming the business environment. Businesses must raise their financial and managerial capacity to the international standard. Hanoi’s authorities should quickly resolve petitions if they can or refer the claims to a higher level.”
