VCN - Free trade agreements (FTAs) play an increasingly important role in promoting the import and export of Vietnamese goods. However, economic expert Phan Duc Hieu, standing member of the Economic Committee of the National Assembly, said that Vietnamese enterprises, especially small and medium enterprises, have been facing many challenges in order to make good use of opportunities from FTAs.

VCN - Effectively exploiting Free Trade Agreements (FTAs), especially new-generation FTAs, is one of the important reasons for exports to earn an impressive figure of over US$336 billion in 2021. This continues to be seen as a key driving force contributing to realizing the export target of over US$356 billion in 2022.

VCN - Talking to the press about increasing logistics costs over the past time, Tran Thanh Hai, Deputy Director of the Import-Export Department (Ministry of Industry and Trade) emphasised that import-export enterprises which have to face many difficulties and are facing many difficulties try to stay productive. If more factors push up the price crisis, some firms will not be able to endure any more.
