HA NOI (
VNS)— The Ministry of Transport and relevant State agencies needed to mobilise social funding for transport projects, as the current funding available for the transport sector this year stood at only VND20 trillion (over US$961.5 billion) - half of last year's figure, Deputy Prime Minister Hoang Trung Hai said at an online conference in Ha Noi yesterday.
Moreover, many transport projects had been progressing slowly and were of poor quality, he said, adding that 2013 transport projects must take climate change into account.
