The recently announced fuel auction in Vietnam aims to increase fuel supply and stabilize prices in the short term by auctioning off 100 million liters of gasoline. However, it does not fully resolve the underlying fuel shortage issue. To mitigate the economic impact of rising fuel prices, the Vietnamese government is considering short-term solutions like reducing fuel taxes and using the petroleum price stabilization fund to support fuel prices for businesses. However, these are not long-term solutions and the government needs to avoid interfering too much in prices as Vietnam follows a market economy model.
