00:00:03.305 --> 00:00:05.607 
Pension adjustment is not pre-determined
for each year, but is implemented 

00:00:05.607 --> 00:00:08.329 
according to a mechanism decided by the
government based on the social insurance 

00:00:08.329 --> 00:00:09.585 
fund and the consumer price index. 

00:00:10.625 --> 00:00:14.486 
According to Article 67 of the 2024 Law
on Social Insurance, effective from July 

00:00:14.486 --> 00:00:17.245 
1, 2025, the principle of
pension adjustment is as follows. 

00:00:17.345 --> 00:00:20.672 
The State adjusts pensions and monthly
social insurance allowances based on the 

00:00:20.672 --> 00:00:23.721 
increase in consumer price index, CPI,
appropriate economic growth, and the 

00:00:23.721 --> 00:00:25.385 
capacity of the social insurance fund. 

00:00:25.385 --> 00:00:28.341 
The adjustment is specifically regulated
by the government according to each 

00:00:28.341 --> 00:00:29.685 
period, about 2 articles 57. 

00:00:30.545 --> 00:00:33.430 
It can be seen that the social insurance
law does not stipulate a definite 

00:00:33.430 --> 00:00:36.108 
pension increase in 2026, but is
regulated by a decree issued by the 

00:00:36.108 --> 00:00:37.345 
government depending on the actual situation. 

00:00:38.125 --> 00:00:42.850 
Article 67 of the 2024 Law on Social
Insurance is still the legal basis for 

00:00:42.850 --> 00:00:45.685 
adjusting pensions for the years
after 2025, including 2026. 

00:00:46.445 --> 00:00:49.420 
In addition, according to Article 3 of
Resolution 245 regulating the 

00:00:49.420 --> 00:00:52.125 
implementation of salary and social
policies, which mentions the content 

00:00:52.125 --> 00:00:55.377 
Continue to create a source of salary
reform, expand the scope of using the 

00:00:55.377 --> 00:00:58.166 
source of salary reform, use the
accumulated source of salary reform of 

00:00:58.166 --> 00:01:00.489 
the central budget to adjust pensions,
social insurance allowances, monthly 

00:01:00.489 --> 00:01:03.045 
allowances, preferential allowances for
people with meritorious services and streamline staff. 

00:01:03.045 --> 00:01:07.102 
In addition, Article 3 of Resolution 246
stipulates the allocation of the central 

00:01:07.102 --> 00:01:09.911 
budget for 2026, which mentions
allocating funds to implement 

00:01:09.911 --> 00:01:12.096 
adjustments, salaries, pensions, social
insurance allowances, monthly 

00:01:12.096 --> 00:01:14.905 
allowances, and preferential allowances
for people with meritorious services. 

00:01:15.685 --> 00:01:18.365 
Some social policies according to the
plan are decided by competent authorities. 

00:01:19.025 --> 00:01:22.467 
It can be seen that the central budget
will prioritize allocating funds to 

00:01:22.467 --> 00:01:24.585 
adjust pensions and social insurance allowances in 2026. 

00:01:25.385 --> 00:01:28.665 
Thus, pensions may be adjusted
upwards in 2026.
