development needs prioritized investment, the State shall vigorously and
comprehensively renovate investment models, financial mechanisms to facilitate
it.

technology would help promote sustainable development and strengthen the
country’s strength, the Resolution says.

and steer resources on scientific and technological development and proactively
engage in international integration to lure Vietnamese experts residing
overseas and foreign resources for scientific and technological projects in
Viet Nam.

economy; protect the environment; ensure national defesen and security; and
