VIETNAM'S ECONOMY

Vietnam is among the brightest emerging markets in Southeast Asia. Amidst the financial tsunami, its economy remained sturdy with some growth in 2009. The key drivers of the country's economic growth include abundant young labor force with relatively low cost, geographic advantage with proximity to China, growing consumer's buying power etc. While the Vietnam gradually opens its economy according to its WTO commitments, new business opportunities emerge.

Robust economic growth aside, Vietnam is facing also some challenges such as slow recovery of external demand, weak domestic infrastructure, inflation pressure, and widening trade deficit. This topic tracks the latest news and information on Vietnam’s economy.
