This move should in fact have been done two years ago in 2020, when the Consumer Price Index (CPI) at that time had increased to 22 percent compared to the time when the Law had come into effect. This is because the Law stipulates that when the CPI increases above 20 percent it must be adjusted. Tax rates not reasonable It is believed that the proposal to amend and adjust the Law on Personal Income Tax is too slow because the Ministry of Finance is trying to make its own adjustments even when the tax regulations and calculations are no longer consistent with ground reality. Because when the value of money decreases due to inflation, tax milestones and family deductions also decrease accordingly, making the lives of wage earners and dependents more and more difficult. Even in the difficult years of the Covid-19 pandemic, the income of employees decreased, but PIT still increased steadily. Only in the first quarter of this year, the PIT amount was estimated at 43.3 percent of the … [Read more...] about Law on Personal Income Tax inconsistent

Young people are interested in taking a cruise through Saigon by waterbus Although it is a weekday, at 8:30 a.m., passengers including domestic tourists to foreigners gathered at the waiting hall at Bach Dang wharf in District 1 to take the river bus route No. 1. They were excited to travel by waterbus. The journey of a river bus departed from Bach Dang wharf on the Saigon River in District 1 through Thanh Da canal to Saigon River in Binh Thanh District and to Linh Dong wharf in Thu Duc City. Sitting in the boat compartment, the surrounding scenery is worth experiencing compared to taking other public transport on the road. On the far shore is the city's expanded commercial area, then the Thu Thiem 2 bridge across the Saigon River - a new symbol of Ho Chi Minh City chosen by many young people as a check-in point every weekend and Landmark 81 skyscraper - the tallest building in Vietnam. When the massive riverside mansions are out of sight, the route will cut through the Thanh … [Read more...] about People interested in taking cruise through Saigon by river bus

Nguyen Van Hung, Minister of Culture, Sports and Tourism, had proposed earlier this week that Vietnam expands visa exemption for tourists from Australia, Canada, India, New Zealand, Europe, and the U.S. to boost tourism recovery after more than two years of pandemic restrictions. Michael Burger from the U.S., who visited Vietnam in May, said the proposal was definitely a positive step toward making travel to Vietnam easier. "As a regular visitor to Vietnam, I feel delighted to hear this news," Burger told VnExpress International. It would help increase Vietnam's tourism competitiveness among Southeast Asian nations that already exempt American passport holders from having to get a visa for stays of under 30 days. Ken Rafter from Australia said it would be "fantastic news" if Australians are exempted from obtaining a visa prior to visiting Vietnam. "When Vietnam reopened to international tourism in March, my family had a terrible time attempting to obtain visas before our … [Read more...] about Foreign tourists upbeat as minister seeks visa waiver expansion

The country maintains a reserve of 370,000 cubic meters, which translates into 6.5 days’ consumption, and this is too low, it said in a recent report. The fuel is kept at 24 locations by the country’s biggest fuel distributors since the government does not have its own storage. For the last five years Vietnam has never needed to use this reserve, but the ministry cautioned about unpredictable and urgent regional and global developments. It wants to quadruple the reserve into a month’s requirement by 2025. Fuel distributors are required to maintain stocks to meet 20 days’ demand. But in January-February this year, when one of the country’s two refineries had to cut production due to a cash crunch, they were not maintaining the 20-day supply and this led to a shortage in the market, the ministry said. Gasoline prices surged by nearly 38 percent for the year by June to VND32,870 ($1.40) per liter. It has now dropped to the same level as in January, VND24,660. … [Read more...] about Fuel reserve too small for safety: industry ministry
