Abstract: In the context of Viet Nam’s participation in new-generation free trade agreements (FTAs), the effective implementation of commitments on trade and sustainable development has become a decisive factor for ensuring deep and sustainable international integration. These commitments are operationalised through three principal mechanisms—cooperation, monitoring, and dispute settlement—with multiple innovations in institutional design, transparency, stakeholder participation, and enforcement modalities. This article analyses the features and operation of these mechanisms and compares them with implementation practice under Viet Nam’s newgeneration FTAs. Building on the orientations reflected in Politburo Resolution No 59- NQ/TW and Resolution No 66-NQ/TW, it proposes directions for strengthening the use of these mechanisms so as to optimise implementation effectiveness. Keywords: Implementation mechanisms; cooperation; monitoring/oversight; dispute settlement; Resolution No 59-NQ/TW; Resolution No 66-NQ/TW.

Abstract: Adopted on 30 April 2025, Politburo Resolution No 66-NQ/TW on renewing the work of law-making and law implementation to meet national development requirements in a new era—aimed at fundamentally reforming legislative drafting and enforcement—functions not only as a policy instrument but also as an institutional and legal basis that provides strategic direction for the timely and comprehensive domestic incorporation of international commitments. This article analyses the context, current situation, and core content of Resolution No 66-NQ/TW, and assesses its impact on the process of domestic incorporation for the purpose of implementing commitments in the field of international trade. On that basis, it advances specific recommendations to operationalise the Resolution’s stated objectives. Keywords: Resolution No 66-NQ/TW; FTA; implementation; commitments; domestic incorporation.

Abstract: As the world enters an era of the knowledge economy and digital transformation, science, technology, and innovation have become key drivers of national growth. For Viet Nam, developing science, technology, and innovation is not only an objective requirement of industrialisation and modernisation, but also an essential solution for escaping the middle-income trap and enhancing national competitiveness. In practice, however, one of the most significant current barriers is the institutional bottleneck in financial investment for science, technology, and innovation, which prevents resources from being mobilised and used effectively, thereby weakening innovation and growth incentives in both the public and private sectors. This article analyses the objective needs and proposes solutions for removing these institutional bottlenecks, contributing to growth-model renovation and to rapid, sustainable, and prosperous national development. Keywords: Science; technology; innovation; financial-investment institutions.

Abstract: Politburo Resolution No 57-NQ/TW dated 22 December 2024 on developing science and technology, innovation, and national digital transformation identifies innovation and digital transformation as key drivers. To institutionalise this orientation, the 2020 Law on Investment and Law No 90/2025/QH15 amending and supplementing a number of provisions of the Law on Bidding, the Law on Public– Private Partnerships, the Law on Customs, the Law on Value-Added Tax, the Law on Export and Import Duties, the Law on Public Investment, and the Law on Management and Use of Public Property (Law No 90/2025/QH15) have expanded the list of incentivised investment sectors in high technology, big data, artificial intelligence, and digital human-resources training. On that basis, this article analyses the current investment-law framework, compares international experience, identifies shortcomings in practice, and recommends solutions to improve the law so as to implement Resolution No 57-NQ/TW effectively. Keywords: Law on Investment 2020; Law No 90/2025/QH15; Resolution No 57- NQ/TW; Innovation; Digital transformation; High technology; AI.

Abstract: A core component of Politburo Resolution No 68-NQ/TW dated 4 May 2025 is to expand and diversify capital sources for the private sector, encourage innovative financial models, and harness digital transformation achievements to promote entrepreneurship and innovation. In that context, crowdfunding has emerged as a non-traditional, technology-enabled form of financing that enables private enterprises—especially small, micro, and start-up firms—to access socialised capital rapidly, flexibly, and transparently. Drawing on the crowdfunding legal frameworks of Singapore, the United States, and the European Union, this article proposes options for developing a legal framework for crowdfunding in Viet Nam. Keywords: Crowdfunding; Private sector; Politburo Resolution No 68-NQ/TW; Fintech.

Abstract: Adopting an adaptive regulation approach, this article identifies four core components of the legal framework for supporting innovative start-ups: enterprise law, investment law, financial regulation, technology sandboxes, and the protection of digital intellectual property. Drawing on comparative analysis with international practice, the article identifies existing legal gaps, including the absence of a dedicated sectoral law, the lack of cross-sectoral sandbox arrangements, and the absence of a personal data protection law. It then recommends a roadmap for improving the regulatory environment for innovative start-ups in Viet Nam through an open, flexible, risk-based approach that balances the promotion of innovation with the protection of the public interest in the digital economy era. Keywords: Innovative start-ups; Legal framework; Data protection; Adaptive regulation.

Abstract: Inclusive business models are widely regarded as an important instrument for advancing sustainable development, as they both ensure commercial effectiveness and generate positive social impact by integrating poor and vulnerable groups into value chains. Politburo Resolution No 68-NQ/TW recognises this model as a strategic orientation for private-sector development. This article analyses the concept and characteristics of inclusive business, clarifies its relationship to the Sustainable Development Goals, and examines experiences from selected ASEAN countries—Indonesia, Cambodia, and the Philippines. On that basis, it suggests that Viet Nam should promptly complete a legal framework for inclusive business by improving relevant legal provisions, establishing a national coordinating body, developing inclusive finance policies, linking these measures to digital transformation, and building a system for impact monitoring and evaluation. Keywords: Inclusive business; Politburo Resolution No 68-NQ/TW; Private sector; Legal framework; ASEAN.

Abstract: Framework laws are an objective and widely observed phenomenon in legal systems, and most countries’ legal systems recognise some form of framework legislation. The enactment of framework laws is motivated, in part, by the aim of enabling parliaments/national assemblies to avoid deliberating matters that are overly detailed or highly technical; more importantly, framework laws help to reduce legislative burdens in the law-making process. Politburo Resolution No 66-NQ/TW emphasises the development of framework laws and the delegation of legislative authority to administrative bodies to specify details through implementing instruments, thereby ensuring flexibility and responsiveness to the frequent changes of social relations. This article surveys the practice of enacting framework laws in selected countries, examines the consequences that may arise, and draws lessons for Viet Nam. Keywords: Framework laws; decrees; circulars; National Assembly; Government.
