Phu Tho Province Holds Dialogue with Businesses and Investors to Address Challenges

Phu Tho Province in northern Vietnam held a dialogue session with businesses and investors on September 23rd for the third quarter of 2026. The meeting aimed to directly hear about the difficulties and issues faced by local enterprises and to formulate feasible and concrete solutions and recommendations. During the session, provincial leadership engaged in direct dialogue with business representatives to discuss resolving obstacles in their projects. The province also announced the launch of consulting services to enhance the capacity of local businesses. This demonstrates the province's commitment to fostering collaboration with enterprises to drive economic growth, a key focus under Vietnam's one-party system. Furthermore, Phu Tho Province hosted the "Thailand Connection Program" in 2026, which attracted participation from numerous large corporations. This initiative seeks to expand international business networks and bolster the region's global competitiveness. The Provincial Department of Finance unveiled three new initiatives to support businesses and individual business owners, which are expected to contribute to smoother economic activities and revitalization. Vietnam's economy has maintained robust growth in recent years, with active foreign investment. However, challenges such as infrastructure, licensing procedures, and talent acquisition persist at the local level. Dialogue sessions like this serve as crucial mechanisms to bridge the gap between the central government's economic policies and on-the-ground realities, ensuring sustainable growth.
