Participants focused their discussions on the theme of parliaments’ role in promoting the digital economy in the region. In the above fields, parliaments have played an important role in promoting recovery measures on a large scale, as demonstrated via their functions of law building, supervision and adoption of important national policies. In such a spirit, Hue agreed with the APPF-29’s economic and trade agenda, saying that they show member parliaments’ determination to foster cooperation and accelerate sustainable economic recovery following the pandemic. According to him, Vietnam considers digital economy and e-commerce as one of the driving forces and priorities in its growth recovery and COVID-19 adaptation policies, in parallel with green, circular, sustainable and eco-friendly growth.
