The main drivers of growth include investment, exports, and consumption, which are currently unfavorable and on the decline. Renewing existing growth drivers, promoting internal resources, and creating new growth drivers are expected to help Vietnam’s economy cope with fluctuations and help it resiliently overcome the difficulties in the second half of the 2021-2025 term.
