Le Thi Minh Thuy, head of the GSO’s Trade & Service Statistics Department, at a meeting with the local press on June 12, admitted that the difference in statistics has existed for many years. However,They said this couldnot be blamed entirely on smuggling.
The meeting was organized after National Assembly’s Deputy Mai Huu Tin, who cited the Chinese statistics agency as saying that Vietnam’s excess of imports over exports in trade with China was $43.8 billion, not $29 billion, as announced by GSO.
