General Statistics Office: Six measures to boost stable economic development after floods
Floods have directly affected agricultural production, industry, tourism, and transport as rising waters impact material infrastructure. Do Thi Ngoc, Deputy Director General of the General Statistics Office, recently granted an interview to the VietnamPlus on the topic.
To cope with the situation, ensuring social security and the life of the flood victims, and developing the economy in the rest of the year, Ngoc said first, the localities hit hard by the storm must proactively minimise the losses to the lowest level. They should implement the Government’s direction on the preparedness against natural calamities. Special attention must be paid to the supply of food and other essentials to the flood victims, the official said.
