The stock market has fallen sharply due to the COVID-19 pandemic, however, economic experts see this as an opportunity for long-term investors. The real estate market is also facing difficulties with reduced demand due to the pandemic and lack of new project launches. In the first quarter of 2020, Ho Chi Minh City only saw the introduction of 5,497 housing units from 11 new real estate projects, down significantly from previous quarters. Both the stock and real estate markets are expected to recover once the pandemic is controlled and economic support policies take effect.

The COVID-19 pandemic is having a severe impact on the Indian economy through both demand and supply-side shocks. On the demand side, sectors like tourism, hospitality, aviation, and retail are facing major declines. Consumption is falling due to job losses and income declines. Supply chains have been disrupted by factory shutdowns in China. Exports are down as key markets like China have slowed. Multilateral agencies have significantly lowered India's growth projections for 2020 and 2021. The Indian government and RBI need to take steps like lowering interest rates, increasing liquidity support, easing credit policies, and increasing fiscal spending to mitigate the economic impacts of the pandemic.
Impact of COVID-19 on Indian Economy: 28th November 2020Sam Ghosh
Indian economy entered a technical recession with two consecutive quarters of GDP contraction in Q2 of FY 2020-21. Results released by the National Statistical Office shows that the GDP of India during the H1 of FY 2020-21 contracted by 15.7% at Constant (2011-12) Prices and 13.3% at Current Prices. While quarterly GDP in Q2 FY 2020-21 in rupee terms improved from Q1 FY 2020-21 by 23% at Constant Prices and 24% at Current Prices, it is still 7.5% and 4% lower than Q2 of FY 2019-20 at Constant and Current Prices respectively. The contraction was caused by a drastic drop in private consumption (which contributes around 60% of Indian GDP) and a drop in gross fixed capital formation.
The policy repo rate has been reduced by 115 basis points from the beginning of 2020 to record low levels. Apart from that, RBI is injecting liquidity through various Open Market Operations and Long Term Repo Operations. Currency with the public increased by ~20% from the end of 2019 to the end of October 2020. We can safely say that the Indian economy is flushed with liquidity.
Consumer inflation remains above the policy range of 4%+2%, and with a GDP contraction, the Indian economy is dealing with stagflation.
On the fiscal front, total monthly receipts remained lower than the same period last year for the whole Q1 and Q2 (April - September) FY 2020-21. October receipts show signs of improvement. Fiscal expenditure on the other hand was maintained at the same levels of FY 2019-20 in FY 2020-21 till October. The fiscal deficit stood at 119.7% of the Budget Estimates as of October 2020 due to lower receipts.
Credit growth remains sluggish especially due to lower credit uptake by the industry. Credit demand for smaller companies was low from the beginning of fiscal 2020-21 which improved after August. Credit uptake by the large corporates dropped after July 2020.
Household savings increased dramatically from Rs.5.32 lakh crores in Q4 of FY 2019-20 to Rs. 8.16 lakh crores in Q1 of FY 2020-21 - a more than 50% increase. Most of the increase in household savings resulted from an aversion to liabilities. It signifies that the households turned conservative about their finances to deal with impending financial distress.
The unemployment rate shot-up in April and May 2020 above 20% and moderated to below 10% levels after June 2020. Employees' Provident Fund records show healthy job creation in September 2020.......
Data Digest #9: Vietnam Stock Market: Embracing New Normal amidst COVID!FiinGroup JSC
COVID-related impacts on the Value could be somehow predictable. In this Report, we conduct an in-depth analysis on factors determining SUPPLY in correlation with DEMAND, instead of purely analyzing corporate fundamentals like before. Under the current circumstance, factors determining DEMAND or affecting money flow and investor sentiment, in our view, are the most important and need taking into serious consideration.
We are trying to make a plenty of data-driven comparisons on impacts of different COVID waves (the first in Q1-2020 and the fourth now) to support you in having assessments on your own. Accordingly, this Report aims to give in-depth analysis and data-driven findings on which sectors or companies could be beneficiaries from the pandemic, especially once the “Embracing the Covid-19” strategy is confirmed.

The COVID-19 pandemic is expected to have significant impacts on global migration and remittance flows in 2020-2021. Lockdowns and travel bans have brought economic activity to a near standstill worldwide. Migrant workers are particularly vulnerable to losing their jobs and wages during the crisis. Remittance flows to low- and middle-income countries are projected to decline by around 20% in 2020 due to the economic downturn and loss of migrant worker incomes. The crisis could also slow progress on reducing remittance costs and achieving other migration-related development goals. Governments need policies that support migrants, remittances, and vulnerable populations both during the pandemic and in its aftermath.
The document discusses the impact of Covid-19 on various sectors of the Indian economy including pharma, banking, and IT. It analyzes key companies within these sectors and finds that while some pharma companies like Sun Pharma were negatively impacted, others like Cipla and Alkem Labs grew profits during the pandemic. Banking was also not significantly impacted, with leading banks like HDFC, Kotak Mahindra, and SBI performing well or growing profits. Within IT, TCS saw declines but HCL and Infosys continued growing revenue and profits amid the pandemic. Overall the analysis found that pharma, banking and IT were sectors that were relatively resilient or grew during the crisis.

The eurozone economy faces persistent weakness, especially in Germany which is dealing with short-term and structural challenges. France's economy may be more resilient than other EU nations in 2020.
ANALYSIS OF ALL SECTORS OF INDIAN ECONOMY.
An analysis of the consumer retail sector (including food and beverage, apparel and footwear, beauty), automotive, travel, and hospitality services.
The pharmaceutical sector has been impacted by COVID-19 in several ways. Production of active pharmaceutical ingredients has slowed down due to lockdowns in major producing countries like China and India, resulting in higher costs and less availability of materials. Digital health solutions are gaining popularity as people turn to telemedicine and health apps during the pandemic. The supply and distribution of medicines and medical supplies has also been disrupted. Certain drugs, especially generics, have faced shortages as supply was managed through existing inventory for the first two months of disruptions.

The OECD interim economic assessment report provides the following key points:
1) The coronavirus outbreak has weakened the global economic outlook, with global GDP growth projected to slow to 2.4% in 2020 from 2.9% in 2019, before recovering to around 3.25% in 2021.
2) China's economy has been significantly impacted by containment efforts, disrupting global supply chains and lowering demand for exports. Other economies are also feeling effects from their own outbreaks.
3) Considerable uncertainty remains around the outlook depending on the duration and spread of the virus. A more prolonged or widespread outbreak would weaken prospects considerably with global growth potentially dropping to 1.5% in 2020.
The Estonian Economy, No. 1 - June 21, 2012Swedbank
The Estonian economy is expected to see more stable growth in 2012, led by strengthening domestic demand and investments. In the first quarter of 2012, GDP growth slowed to 3.7% year-over-year as export growth declined and imports increased. Private consumption growth remains strong, supported by improving labor market conditions. Investment growth is projected to be robust in 2012, driven by public sector investments financed by EU funds and revenues from carbon quotas, as well as capacity constraints in manufacturing inducing private investments. Exports are expected to grow more slowly in 2012 as demand from trade partners softens.
The document discusses the impact of COVID-19 on the Indian economy. It notes that India reported its first COVID-19 case in January 2020. The pandemic caused a catastrophic health crisis and the lockdown measures implemented in March 2020 had a significant negative impact on various economic sectors in India like tourism, manufacturing, and MSMEs. This led to a sharp rise in unemployment and fall in GDP. The government announced various economic relief packages to support the economy during the crisis.
The document summarizes the impact of COVID-19 on the Indian media and entertainment sector and pharmaceutical sector. It states that the media and entertainment sector revenue is expected to decline by 16% due to lockdowns shutting down theaters, halting productions, and reducing advertising spending. It also discusses specific impacts on companies like Zee Entertainment, PVR, and Inox Leisure whose revenues declined substantially. For the pharmaceutical sector, it notes that India supplies a significant portion of generic drugs and APIs globally but that COVID-19 has disrupted supply chains and some APIs from China may go out of stock.
- The document discusses the impact of COVID-19 on the Indian economy and various sectors. It notes that sectors like tourism, hospitality, aviation have been hit the hardest and consumption is declining due to job losses and falling incomes. The financial markets have also become volatile.
- On the supply side, factory shutdowns and delays in supplies from China are impacting manufacturing. Exports are also declining. Agriculture and poultry, aviation, tourism, education, and entertainment have all faced major disruptions and losses.
- Suggestions provided include financial aid and support for impacted sectors, promoting digital payments, and according essential service status to fintech companies to support the financial system.
*There is also a major impact in the tourism sector as many tourist from China come to India for site seeing and enjoying and it also affected the airline businesses a lot also.
INFOGRAPHIC: Consumer Finance in Vietnam - First-Half 2020 ReviewFiinGroup JSC
For the first time in a decade, Vietnam consumer finance market experienced a single-digit growth rate (9.2% YoY in the first half of 2020), following aggressive credit growth over the past few year. This is attributed to the dual challenge posed by COVID-19 pandemic and tightening regulations on cash loans disbursement prescribed at Circular 18/2019. However, despite the modest growth rate, Vietnam consumer finance maintained a contribution of over 20% of the country loan book.
Vietnam has experienced strong GDP growth in recent years but also has several weaknesses in its economy. It has a skilled workforce and diverse exports but also has a frail banking system, corruption, and tensions with China. A new government was elected in 2016 and Vietnam joined the Trans-Pacific Partnership, which may help offset its economic dependence on China and open new trade channels with the US. However, several reforms have been delayed and state-owned enterprises have only been partially privatized, while the country still lacks transparency.
Quarter after quarter, we will invite local experts in different fields of economy and ask them to present their individual, professional take on the current situation in CEE region, and to share their hopes and expectations. Our goal is to collect a varied array of thoughts and commentaries on the CEE economy that will serve as a kaleidoscopic record of market reality, rather than be a periodic, data-centred analysis. We believe that in this way we can help build a more relatable and engaging platform for dialogue, which will also go beyond the pages of this publication.
Provisional estimates of GDP for fy 2018 19 and final estimates of GDP for fy...Md. Mamun Hasan Biddut
According to the Bangladesh Bureau of Statistics (BBS), Bangladesh GDP grew by 5.24 per cent during 2019-20 raising the per capita income by US$155 to US$2,064. This growth rate has been achieved when the global economy is contracting, in particular the whole developed world where according to the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) major economies are expected to contract by 2.4 per cent in 2020. The World Bank GDP projection for 2020 predicts a fall by 2.5 per cent for developing countries and 1.8 per cent for developed countries. Even the neighboring country India recorded a contraction of the economy by 23.9 per cent during the April-June quarter of 2020.
This growth rate is also much above the economic growth forecast provided for Bangladesh by the World Bank (WB) at 1.6 percent, International Monetary Fund (IMF) at 3.8 percent and Asian Development Bank (ADB) at 4.5 percent for 2020. While these forecast figures are for the calendar year 2020, but the BBS growth figure is for the 2019-20 financial year. In fact, the Bangladesh government believes that the economy is on track to achieve 8.2 per cent growth rate in 2020-21 and also expects the economy to rebound at a higher pace than before after the pandemic is over (FE, August, 28). There is an implicit message that the economy is not only trekking back to pre-pandemic levels but also will surpass that.
The COVID-19 pandemic is having a severe impact on the Indian economy through both demand and supply-side shocks. On the demand side, sectors like tourism, hospitality, aviation, and retail are facing major declines. Consumption is falling due to job losses and income declines. Supply chains have been disrupted by factory shutdowns in China. Exports are down as key markets like China have slowed. Multilateral agencies have significantly lowered India's growth projections for 2020 and 2021. The Indian government and RBI need to take steps like lowering interest rates, increasing liquidity support, easing credit policies, and increasing fiscal spending to mitigate the economic impacts of the pandemic.

INFOGRAPHIC: Consumer Finance in Vietnam - First-Half 2020 ReviewFiinGroup JSC
For the first time in a decade, Vietnam consumer finance market experienced a single-digit growth rate (9.2% YoY in the first half of 2020), following aggressive credit growth over the past few year. This is attributed to the dual challenge posed by COVID-19 pandemic and tightening regulations on cash loans disbursement prescribed at Circular 18/2019. However, despite the modest growth rate, Vietnam consumer finance maintained a contribution of over 20% of the country loan book.
Vietnam has experienced strong GDP growth in recent years but also has several weaknesses in its economy. It has a skilled workforce and diverse exports but also has a frail banking system, corruption, and tensions with China. A new government was elected in 2016 and Vietnam joined the Trans-Pacific Partnership, which may help offset its economic dependence on China and open new trade channels with the US. However, several reforms have been delayed and state-owned enterprises have only been partially privatized, while the country still lacks transparency.
Quarter after quarter, we will invite local experts in different fields of economy and ask them to present their individual, professional take on the current situation in CEE region, and to share their hopes and expectations. Our goal is to collect a varied array of thoughts and commentaries on the CEE economy that will serve as a kaleidoscopic record of market reality, rather than be a periodic, data-centred analysis. We believe that in this way we can help build a more relatable and engaging platform for dialogue, which will also go beyond the pages of this publication.
Provisional estimates of GDP for fy 2018 19 and final estimates of GDP for fy...Md. Mamun Hasan Biddut
According to the Bangladesh Bureau of Statistics (BBS), Bangladesh GDP grew by 5.24 per cent during 2019-20 raising the per capita income by US$155 to US$2,064. This growth rate has been achieved when the global economy is contracting, in particular the whole developed world where according to the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) major economies are expected to contract by 2.4 per cent in 2020. The World Bank GDP projection for 2020 predicts a fall by 2.5 per cent for developing countries and 1.8 per cent for developed countries. Even the neighboring country India recorded a contraction of the economy by 23.9 per cent during the April-June quarter of 2020.
This growth rate is also much above the economic growth forecast provided for Bangladesh by the World Bank (WB) at 1.6 percent, International Monetary Fund (IMF) at 3.8 percent and Asian Development Bank (ADB) at 4.5 percent for 2020. While these forecast figures are for the calendar year 2020, but the BBS growth figure is for the 2019-20 financial year. In fact, the Bangladesh government believes that the economy is on track to achieve 8.2 per cent growth rate in 2020-21 and also expects the economy to rebound at a higher pace than before after the pandemic is over (FE, August, 28). There is an implicit message that the economy is not only trekking back to pre-pandemic levels but also will surpass that.
Vietnam aims to increase GDP per capita from $2,600 to $10,000 by 2035. To achieve this, the government plans reforms in areas like the private sector, innovation, urban development, sustainability, social equality, and government efficiency. Experts recommend improving financial systems, developing capital markets, and promoting business and innovation reforms. The real estate market is slowing in Ho Chi Minh City but growing in suburban areas with new infrastructure. Mergers and acquisitions are expected to increase as Vietnamese businesses seek support from foreign investors. The coffee franchise business is also expanding as major brands look to grow.
Indonesia's economy contracted significantly in the second quarter of 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. GDP declined 5.32% year-over-year and 4.19% quarter-over-quarter, marking the first contraction since the 1998 Asian financial crisis. This decline was deeper than predicted. One factor was a 5.51% decrease in household consumption, with declines in most consumption categories except housing/home appliances and health/education. The economic downturn has pushed several countries into recession and may continue affecting investment, production, employment and purchasing power. To support economic recovery, the Indonesian government expanded tax incentives and introduced regulations allowing alternative bases for VAT collection from foreign digital companies and farmers.
The document provides an overview of Vietnam's economy and real estate market in recent months. It can be summarized as follows:
1. Vietnam's GDP growth was 6.98% in the first 9 months of 2019, the highest in 9 years, led by industry and services. Inflation remained low at 2.5%. Exports and imports were both up 8.4% year-to-date.
2. Industrial real estate has attracted significant investment in 2019. Japan invested $177 million to expand industrial parks. The conversion of Bien Hoa Industrial Zone 1 to a smart urban area was also announced.
3. Vietnam's stock and real estate markets have also grown, with the VN

VIETNAM WILL MOVE ON - Dr. Oliver Massmann in interview with Vietnam Economic...Dr. Oliver Massmann
Foreign direct investment into Vietnam increased in 2021 despite the pandemic, with $23.74 billion in newly registered and additional capital. This was driven by several large projects in energy and manufacturing. The EU remained a major investor in Vietnam as well. The Vietnamese government has introduced policies to support economic recovery and reopened the country, implementing safety measures to allow a new normal. Vietnam aims to be more selective in approving investment projects to increase quality. With vaccine rollout and economic reopening, foreign direct investment is expected to increase in 2022 as Vietnam continues reforms to improve its business environment.
Impact of covid 19 pandemic on indian economyHarsh Kumar
The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted the Indian economy. A nationwide lockdown was announced on March 23rd, slowing the supply side and accelerating the pre-existing economic slowdown. India is predicted to enter a recession, negatively affecting the large unorganized sector and jobless daily wage earners. The MSME sector, which contributes 30-35% of GDP, has been hard hit. The online business sector, which contributes 10% of GDP and 8% of jobs, has also seen a drastic impact. Key sectors like healthcare and household goods have seen increased online demand, while lifestyle categories have witnessed a 15-30% sales drop.
Swiss Re sigma 3/2019: World insurance: the great pivot east continuesΔρ. Γιώργος K. Κασάπης
Global insurance premium volumes passed a new benchmark high of USD 5 trillion in 2018. Global life premium growth was weak, but there was solid performance in non-life in 2018.
The central narrative of this year's annual world insurance sigma is the continued rise of the emerging markets, mostly emerging Asia and China in particular, as the main drivers of industry growth. From 11% in 2018, China's share of global premiums will rise to 20% by 2029. China remains on course to become the world's biggest insurance market by mid-2030s. The whole of Asia-Pacific will account for 42% of the global premiums by 2029.
Swiss Re Institute forecasts close to 3% global premium growth in real terms per annum in 2019/20, against a slowing but still positive economic backdrop. Advanced market premiums will grow by 1.5%, and emerging markets by 7.9%. China will be the largest contributor, in both life and non-life. Overall, however, the advanced markets will still provide almost half of additional premiums in absolute terms in the next two years.

Lawyer in Vietnam Dr. Oliver Massmann - Mining Industry in Vietnam - Basics:Dr. Oliver Massmann
There is little publicly available information about Vietnam's mining industry. What information exists is contained in general reports by the Ministry of Industry and Trade that are not specific to mining. The reports indicate that coal production will increase between 2016-2020 to help fuel economic development while a portion is exported. The Vietnamese government strongly encourages foreign direct investment as seen through various trade agreements. Specifically for mining, foreign direct investment reached $7.7 billion in the first half of 2017, accounting for 10.6% of total foreign investment. All mines in Vietnam are government-owned, but there are approximately 20 joint ventures between the government and foreign investors ranging from $1 billion or more in investment capital. The market for minerals in Vietnam primarily serves domestic

2. However, looking in a positive direction, many
economic experts have said that the stock market
now opens up many opportunities for long-term
investors. Associate Dr. Pham Van Hung- Chief of
investment faculty, National Economics University,
with long-term investors, the stock market is now a
good opportunity when the stock price has fallen
sharply, around the real value. Therefore, the investor
may consider disbursement of small proportion (20-
30% of the long-term investment portfolio value)
when the stock market goes to nearly 700 points.
According to Associate Dr. Pham Van Hung, investors
should prioritize investing in businesses in less-
affected sectors of the Covid-19 pandemic, such as the
technology industry, essential consumption, fertilizer,
the export sectors that Vietnam is self-owned, and
is expected to recover sharply when the Covid-19
pandemic pass through over such as the fisheries
industry.
The same opinion of Associate Dr. Hung, Mr. Phan Tan
Nhat (head of analysis of Saigon Securities Company),
a Hanoi branch of Ho Chi Minh City said that investors
should not be too scared, selling stock unexpectedly,
but need to choose the investment opportunities
below the value for long-term vision for a few years
when a lot of investment opportunities below the
value has and are appearing.
Based on the history of the epidemic and the response
of the securities market, Mr. Huynh Minh Tuan (director
of Mirae Asset Securities) joint stock company said
that, usually after each pandemic, the market is
always recovering higher thanks to the increase in
production, the support policies of the government to
restore the economy, besides the suitable Innovative
services and products will be launched. Mr. Tuan
believes: “After the raining, the sky will shine”.
TMS Consultancy Company forecasts the stock
market in the next time that if the pandemic is well
controlled, in the short term, the global stock market
and the Vietnam securities market will also recover
again.
As the effects of Covid-19 pandemic for the stock
market, recently, the Ministry of Finance has issued
Circular No. 14/2020/TT-BTC dated 03/18/2020
amendment of Circular No. 127/2018/TT-BTC dated
12/27/2018 of the Minister of Finance to specify the
price of services in the securities sector applied at the
stock exchange and the Vietnam Securities Depository
(VSD), In which there is the price decreasing provisions
of 15 types of services in the field of securities and are
applied from March 19 to 08/31/2020.
To create the effect for the market, the circular
14/2020/TT-BTC also regulated the organizations
that are providing services in the field of securities
(securities company, Commercial Bank) on the basis of
discounts on services at the stock Exchange and VSD,
immediately implementing the respective service
discounts in their units to support the organizations
and individuals using the service that is influenced by
the Covid-19 pandemic, in accordance with the actual
provision of services, the provisions of the Law on
prices and the relevant legislation.
The price adjustment of security services is one of the
timely solutions to remove difficulties and support
the market. Together with the decisive efforts of
the government, the synergy, the solidarity of the
people in the prevention of Covid-19 pandemic and
the internal forces of Vietnam, experts expect the
economy in general and the stock market in particular
will stabilize the positive growth back.

The 2019 real estate market
was a difficult year. The biggest
congestion of the real estate
market in the year 2019 is the legal
concerns. This is also the cause of
hundreds of projects that cannot
be deployed, causing the scarce
supply.
The Cocobay’s event in Da Nang last
year was a shocking for the resort
property market, especially the
Condotel segment. Many investors
have been losing confidence in
Condotel while this is the leading
product in the quantity in famous
resort which are located mostly at
Nha Trang, Da Nang city and Phu
Quoc island.
Another cause that impact of the
credit-tightening pathway to real
estate. Specifically, the maximum
percentage of short-term capital
used for medium and long-term
lenders decreased from 40% to
30%. The government bank also
increased the risk coefficient when
trading in real estate from 150% to
200%.
At the time of the real estate
market is very difficult, at the
beginning of the year 2020, the
Covid-19 pandemic unexpectedly
“come” to add the pressure to the
domestic economy and undermine
the prospects for the real estate
market. The Covid-19 pandemic
has a significant impact on entire
segments such as retail, office, and
industrial real estate. In which, the
resort property has the heaviest
impact than other segments.
The real estate market in 2020
was also facing with the hesitation
psychology from customers. By the
last time, the market has witnessed
many unreputable companies,
many projects “On Paper only”
raging, causing customers’ loss
confidence. This is considered a
huge challenge for the real estate
market this year.
The real estate specialists identified,
the real estate market in general
and in HCMC particular faced many
difficulties this year. While the
supply of the project has not yet
been declared, the customer has
turned their back from the Covid-19
pandemic. The peculiarity of the
brokerage is to meet in person,
the sales organization focused on
crowds, but in the current situation,
the activities are limited. Therefore,
many of the real estate trading floor
across the country must suspend
the operations or operate slowly
through this tough time.
According to new figures published
by the Department of Business
Administration (Ministry of
PlanningandInvestment),uptothe
end of the year 2019, there are 598
enterprises registering to suspend
operations and 686 companies
that closed. The number of 686
real estate enterprises that are said
above are mainly companies that
provide brokerage services.
Not only the small real estate
trading floor companies closed, the
Covid-19 pandemic is also breaking
many of the intended of big
investors. Most major real estate
businesses in Ho Chi Minh city
have planned to launch products
this year that is also in the status of
“stay put.” Some big companies try
to survive to this difficult time by
selling the next phase of old project
or buy and re-selling the properties.

Vietnam Real Estate Brokerage
association, the supply of Quarter I
2020 is only about 1/3 compared to

pandemic, which makes the plans
to open and develop projects
of many investors to cancel or
postpone indefinitely.

are also providing social housing on
a large scale: 352 units at the Nam
Phan project in Phu Huu Ward,
District 9, are available for sale. This
is unique because normally social
housing units rarely exceed 100 in
any sale, according to the investors.

the hotels have issued strict regulations for their
employees and customers to follow. An example is all
public areas of the guest such as a lifting board, coffee
table and reception that are cleaned and fumigant
sprays after 30 minutes. All the staffs must wear the
mask for the prevention and many of the luxury hotels
have used the wine sterilized gel and disinfectant

check the temperature of all guests in the hotel and
the temperature of all employees is recorded twice

priority for them.

house services.

process of implementing the general planning of the
city. This decision does not alter the general planning
of the year 2010.

for the HCM city people’s Committee that approved
the zoning project for the subdivision of 1/2,000 science
and technology parks at Long Phuoc Ward, District 9.

of implementing the project, in particular the overlap between
land law and the bidding law in the land-transfer procedures,
land leasing for investors’ winning bidding is considered as
large congestion is asked to disassembly by many real estate
businesses.
This is the cause of many provincials “dare not” to hand over the
new projects and land for investors who have won the bidding,
which lead many projects were stalled. This has seriously
impacted the economic development of the localities as well as
the investment opportunities of the businesses.
The Decree 25/2020/ND-CP is an extensive bidding to choose
investors to implement the investment projects in the Public-
Private Partner (PPP) model. Decree No. 25 was issued on
February 28, 2020 which is the power to remove difficulties for
many developers.
There are 92 articles in the Decree No. 25 and with the provisions
of article 60 which has clearly defined the delivery of land to
investors who win the bidding will be deployed immediately after
the completion of compensation, supporting the resettlement of
