Video: Viet Nam officially removes state monopoly on gold bar production
The government has issued a new decree on the management of gold trading activities, abolishing the state’s monopoly on the production of gold bars and the import and export of raw gold, shifting instead to a licensing regime.
A number of major infrastructure, housing and industrial projects were launched or put into operation in cities and provinces across Viet Nam on August 29, as part of activities marking the 81st National Day (September 2).
