To promote exports, control imports

These measures are aimed at stabilizing the marco economy, curbing inflation and reaching economic growth rate of 6.5 percent with export turnover of just over 6 percent.

MoIT Minister Vu Huy Hoang asked the Import and Export Department to work with the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development and other associations to take measures to promote exports, expand markets, and tap the traditional and potential markets to improve the export turnover of agricultural and aquatic products.

Besides, the department will cooperate with the Interior Ministry to formulate a project on establishing inter-committee on import and export under the direction of Deputy Prime Minister Hoang Trung Hai.
