Economic Growth and Employment in Vietnam - David (Griffith University - Bog

Vietnam has enjoyed significant economic success and rapid growth in GDP, exports and investment in recent years. Despite this, however, the economic situation for ordinary people in Vietnam is fragile, with high inflation and unemployment, a large and often poorly performing state-owned sector and income only just above the poverty line. This book provides a comprehensive overview of the current economic situation in Vietnam. It outlines the state of the economy, discusses government policies including on trade and integration with the global economy, and concludes by assessing the key challenges facing Vietnam¿s economy going forward.
