He reminded Hanoi that besides its various advantages, there are many challenges ahead and the city should not be satisfied with what it has achieved.

According to Secretary of the municipal Party Committee Vuong Dinh Hue, the local Party Committee strictly followed the direction and made positive response to the Party General Secretary and President’s call, thus leading the city to successfully carry out the dual tasks of detaining the pandemic and maintaining economic growth. Hanoi posted a GDP growth rate of 3.98 percent, agricultural growth of 4.2 percent - the highest in the past nine years, and generated over 180,000 jobs, Hue reported.
