In the context of rapid global digital transformation, the digital economy is no longer an optional trend but has become a core driver of development for countries and localities.

In the context of increasingly deep international integration, cooperation in the healthcare sector has become one of the key drivers contributing to improving the quality of medical examination and treatment, enabling domestic doctors to access advanced techniques and gradually enhance their professional expertise.

On March 12, the City Tax Department and Saigon Thuong Tin Commercial Joint Stock Bank (Sacombank) - Hue Branch signed a cooperation agreement to jointly provide guidance on tax policies aimed at supporting household businesses in their digital transformation.
