What are the key elements of Vietnam's public sector reform?

Vietnam's parliament has approved a sweeping public sector reform that includes cutting 20% of public sector jobs and reducing government spending. This comprehensive restructuring will significantly streamline the government by reducing the number of ministries from 30 to 22. Notably, key departments such as Transport and Labor will be eliminated entirely as part of this consolidation effort. This reform represents one of Vietnam's most substantial governance overhauls, aimed at increasing efficiency and reducing bureaucracy in its public administration system.
