Public investment capital disbursement continued to be strongly improved, reaching 71.4% of the assigned plan assigned; realized foreign direct investment capital was estimated at USD 17.2 billion. Industrial production recovered; the index of industrial production (IIP) in November increased by 9.2% over the same period last year, of which the manufacturing increased by 11.9%.
