Report and the Socio-Economic Plan for 2016-2020. Drafts of these documents were
released in September for public discussion and comment.
The draft Political Report gives priority to, among other matters, education and
training, developing science and technology, tackling corruption, enhancing the rule
of law, national unity, socialist democracy, and building a clean and strong party.
The Socio-Economic Plan stresses the importance of maintaining macro-economic
stability, controlling public debt and developing Vietnam into a modern and
industrialised country by 2020. It sets the target of an average GDP growth rate of
between 6.5 and 7 per cent over the next five years. By 2020 GDP per capita is
expected to reach U.S. $3,670-$3,750 or placing Vietnam at the border line between
low and medium income country.
