UN DEVELOPMENT BODY HELPS VN INDUSTRIAL SECTOR CREATE STRATEGIES
The project, by the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO), will be carried out for 36 months with a total investment of US$1.08 million.
It aims to raise the institutional capacity of both, the government and the private sector, thus helping to improve the strategy for the sector as a whole and develop suitable policies for each specific industry, and ultimately enhancing the competitiveness of Viet Nam’s industrial sector.
According to the industrial development strategy through 2025, with a vision to 2035, Viet Nam’s industrial sector will develop with a sound structure in terms of industry and region. The industrial sector should be sufficiently competitive to develop during integration, with modern technologies, and participate in the global value chain in a number of specialised sub-sectors and fields, and can fundamentally meet the requirements of the economy and exports.
By 2035, Viet Nam’s industrial sector will develop with a majority of specialised industries meeting international standards in terms of technologies and product quality, deeply participating in the global value chain, using energy efficiently, and competing fairly in international integration.
