The Presidential Office has announced the Order of the State President promulgating nine laws adopted by the 16th National Assembly at its first session, a move to strengthen the legal framework, drive administrative reform, and create breakthroughs for national development, with the revised Capital Law poised to open a new growth era for Ha Noi.

In the early days of the Lunar New Year of Binh Ngo 2026, the Ho Chi Minh City People’s Committee has been focusing on implementing Plan No.60/KH-UBND on administrative reform and the control of administrative procedures in the city in 2026.

Implementing major resolutions of the Politburo and the Government on institutional reform, the Ministry of Finance is rolling out a coordinated programme to cut business conditions and simplify administrative procedures, aiming to reduce compliance costs and time, improve the investment and business climate, and promote sustainable growth.

From now until late 2025, Viet Nam aims to eliminate at least 30% of business-related conditions; and cut processing time for administrative procedures and compliance costs by at least 30%.
