It expected Vietnam’s inflation at 3.7 percent in the latest report, up 0.7 percentage point compared to the previous forecast published February. However, Vietnam’s inflation is unlikely to be a big concern this year as it will likely remain well below the 4 percent inflation target of the State Bank of Vietnam, the lender said. Compared to rising inflation in parts of Southeast Asia, Vietnam’s inflationary risk is among the lower end of the group, it added. According to the General Statistic Office, the four-month consumer price index rose by 2.1 percent compared to 0.89 percent over the same period last year.

At a Saturday conference in Harvard University on Vietnam's development strategy in the 21st century, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh said Vietnam's economy has expanded into the fourth largest economy in ASEAN and among the world's top 12 economies with the largest scale of commerce. The country also takes part in 15 active FTAs, he said. Economist David Dapic said Vietnam taking part in FTAs was a major success. Millions of farmers have moved on to work in factories as a result. But the fact that most materials for production are imported from China is a weakness, he added. When the Covid-19 pandemic broke out, borders were closed and there was commercial tension, Vietnam's exports were affected, Dapic said. Vietnam's trade turnover with the U.S. may reach $100 billion this year. Such a figure might be small for the U.S., but Vietnam should take note to remain in constant communication and avoid being accused of currency manipulation, he advised.
