Vietnam’s economy grew 5.76 percent in the first nine months of the year from the same period last year, the state-backed news website Gafin.vn on Wednesday quoted the government’s statistics office as saying.
Last year, gross domestic product expanded 6.52 percent during the same nine-month period.
The government has been fighting Asia’s highest inflation and the Asian Development Bank earlier this month cut Vietnam’s full-year economic growth for 2011 to 5.8 percent from 6.1 percent projected in April.
