MPI PLANS TO CONDUCT 34 INSPECTIONS IN 2022
Key infrastructure and transport projects are the most important objects of the inspection plan of the Ministry of Planning and Investment (MPI) next year.
In its newly-issued inspection plan for 2022, the transportation projects that the MPI plans to inspect next year are component projects of the North-South Expressway in the east (running across Ninh Binh, Binh Thuan, Vinh Long, and Tien Giang provinces) and the project on upgrading the system of runways and taxiways at Tan Son Nhat International Airport in Ho Chi Minh City; the highway projects connecting Hanoi-Haiphong and Cau Gie-Ninh Binh in the two provinces of Hung Yen and Ha Nam.

The MPI also plans to conduct two administrative inspections. The first one will be an inspection of the management and use of assets and finance; emulation and commendation; the Institute for Development Strategy's compliance with the laws on citizen reception, complaint, and denunciation settlement, anti-corruption prevention and control, thrift practice, and anti-wastefulness in 2020-2021.

VIỆT NAM STEPS UP EXPORT TO ACHIEVE US$550-BILLION TARGET
Việt Nam is intensifying efforts to sustain export momentum in the second half of 2026 as the country works towards its target of US$550 billion in export revenue for the year, despite continuing uncertainties in global trade. Statistics show that exports reached $266.5 billion in the first six months, meaning the economy needs to generate around $245.5 billion more during the remainder of the year to meet the annual goal.
ASIA POWERS VIETNAM’S SHRIMP BOOM, LEAVING THE WEST BEHIND
In the first half of 2026, Vietnam's shrimp exports surpassed the US$2.3 billion mark, driven largely by booming demand from China and a lobster craze. But behind that growth figure lies a lopsided picture: Asia is carrying the load, while the U.S. and Europe have yet to break out. These days, a container of frozen shrimp leaving a Ho Chi Minh City port is more likely to cross the East Vietnam Sea to Shanghai than the Pacific to Los Angeles.
