Member of the delegation, Mr. Ha Minh Manh - Director of Enterprise Innovation Department (the Government Office) said that just one month after the Prime Minister issued Decision No. 852, EVN has completed the construction of detailed plans and assigned units to implement it.

EVN has a number of targets to reach the ASEAN top 4, reaching a high position in the world. EVN's power projects have been implemented on schedule, many projects were completed ahead of schedule. In the management process, EVN has learned, approached well with international businesses, applied a more modern management model. 

EVN General Director Tran Dinh Nhan delivering a speech

EVN's report at the meeting showed that the main difficulties and obstacles during the implementation of Decision No. 852 are the mechanism in equitization and divestment, in particular the policy and mechanism in arrangement and handling of real estate. For the equitization of EVNGENCO 3, the initial public offering (IPO) has not reached the target, failed to find strategic investors, and the State ownership ratio is still high. The finalization of equitization at EVNGENCO 3 has not been given the specific guidance by the competent state agencies on the time of making financial statements. EVN General Director Tran Dinh Nhan proposed that EVN would report to the Prime Minister on the time of making EVNGENCO 3's financial statement to settle the State capital when equitizing at this Corporation.

In 2020, EVN is striving to complete all the contents of Decision No. 852 and other directions of the Prime Minister. EVN proposes to the Government for approval of the Decree on establishing and reorganizing state-owned (100% charter capital) enterprises and its one-member limited liability subsidiaries being companies; ownership conversion, transferring rights of ownership representation and controller of state-owned (100% charter capital) enterprises, to facilitate the operation of state-run economic groups and corporations. EVN proposes to the Prime Minister for considering and approving the EVN Development Strategy to 2030, with a vision to 2045.

EVN proposes BIDSC quarterly to arrange and work directly with the Group to promptly remove difficulties and obstacles, including guidance on the implementation mechanism, responsibility evaluation and document response deadline by agencies, to meet requirements on efficiency and schedule.
