Vietnam is aiming to create favourable conditions for attracting more investment in infrastructure sector, Xinhua news agency quoted Deputy Governor of the State Bank of Vietnam Dao Minh Tu as telling Christopher Legg, AIIB Director for Australia, New Zealand, Singapore and Vietnam at the meeting here earlier this week.
Vietnam and the AIIB will soon select appropriate projects which have economic effectiveness while still securing the target of maintaining sustainable public debt, Tu said.
