The article said integrating into ASEAN was the key to igniting Vietnam’s trade engine. It noted that Vietnam has signed free trade agreements with China, the European Union, the UK, and Japan, creating a fertile environment for trade relations to grow.
A rapid increase in manufacturing competitiveness, it said, has contributed to Vietnam’s rise as a regional export powerhouse, and Vietnam has also been very successful in attracting foreign direct investment (FDI), thanks to favorable government policies.
