Prime Minister Demands Investment Results Report for First 9 Months by October 15th

On October 10, 2025, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh signed Telegram No. 194/CĐ-TTg, urging ministries, sectors, and localities to urgently review and report on investment activities for the first nine months of 2025.

To further strengthen state management in investment activities, create a favorable business environment, and unlock resources from both the state and society, the government aims to achieve a national economic growth rate of over 8% in 2025. This includes disbursing 100% of the allocated capital and maintaining double-digit growth from 2026 to 2030. Additionally, the focus is on accelerating digital transformation, developing the digital economy, green economy, and circular economy to propel the nation into a new era. The Prime Minister has issued the following directives:

Streamlining Administrative Procedures in Investment Activities

Ministers, heads of ministerial-level agencies, government-attached agencies, and chairpersons of provincial people’s committees are tasked with the following:

Thoroughly disseminate and rigorously implement government resolutions and the Prime Minister’s directives to all officials and civil servants involved in state investment management. Reform public service mechanisms, enhance administrative discipline, and reduce processing times for investment procedures. Prioritize citizens and businesses as the core focus, guided by the principles of “6 Clears” (clear responsibilities, tasks, timelines, deadlines, authority, and outcomes) and “3 Nos” (no red tape, no evasion, and no backlog of files or delays).

Direct subordinate agencies to expedite the processing of investment-related files at all levels and sectors, ensuring professionalism, transparency, democracy, and modernity. Issues within the jurisdiction of ministries, sectors, or localities must be proactively addressed without evasion, fear of mistakes, or shirking responsibility.

Promote digitization, automation, and data interoperability. Enhance governance capacity, improve labor productivity, and reduce costs and processing times.

The Ministry of Finance is tasked with developing content, forms, data fields, and reporting formats for the first nine months of 2025, in accordance with Articles 69, 70, and 72 of the Investment Law. Ensure uniformity, completeness, ease of implementation, and convenience in data utilization.

Urgently issue guidelines to ministries, central agencies, and localities for unified reporting based on the developed forms, to be completed by October 12, 2025.

The Ministry of Finance will compile reports from all ministries and localities and submit them to the Prime Minister by October 20, 2025.

Submit Investment Reports for the First Nine Months by October 15

Ministries, agencies, and people’s committees of provinces and centrally-run cities are required to prepare and submit investment reports for the first nine months of 2025 to the Prime Minister by October 15, 2025, based on their functions, tasks, and the guidance from the Ministry of Finance. Copies should also be sent to the Minister of Finance and the Minister and Chairman of the Government Office.

Any challenges encountered during implementation should be promptly reported to the Ministry of Finance for guidance.

Deputy Prime Minister Ho Duc Phoc is responsible for overseeing, directing, and resolving difficulties faced by agencies and localities within his authority. Matters beyond his authority should be reported to the Prime Minister.

The Government Office will monitor and urge ministries, agencies, and localities to swiftly implement this Telegram.
