Illustrative photo. (Source: VNA) Hanoi (VNA) – It will be a challenge to keep Consumer Price Index ( CPI ) growth under 4 percent this year, according to an economist. Vietnam's CPI picked up 2.1 percent in the first four months of 2022 , much higher than the same period last year’s 0.89 percent but still lower than that of 2017 (4.8 percent) and 2020 (4.9 percent), commented Dr. Tran Toan Thang, head of the Department of Industrial and Business Forecast at the National Centre of Economic Forecast and Information. April CPI advanced 2.09 percent compared to December 2021 and 2.64 percent year-on-year as a result of an increase in prices of nine out of eleven commodities and services.

Photo courtesy of Tiền Phong Marathon Thanh Nga HÀ NỘI — Vietnamese marathon runners are hoping to do better on home soil than they have in recent years at the SEA Games. The marathon is a highly-competitive event at the regional Games, with powerhouses Singapore, Indonesia and Thailand all hoping to do well.

In this year’s Games, the Vietnamese marathon team registered two athletes in each event with a desire to bring home gold medals. The veteran Phạm Thị Hồng Lệ is set to compete at the 10,000m event in which she is the national record holder. Meanwhile, Hoàng Thị Ngọc Hoa from the southern province of Bình Phước and Phạm Thị Huệ from the northern province of Quảng Ninh will represent Việt Nam in … [Read more...] about Việt Nam looks for a change in marathon fortunes this year
