Economy Overview:
Vietnam is a densely-populated, developing country that in the last 30
years has had to recover from the ravages of war, the loss of financial
support from the old Soviet Bloc, and the rigidities of a
centrally-planned economy. Substantial progress was achieved from 1986
to 1997 in moving forward from an extremely low level of development and
significantly reducing poverty. Growth averaged around 9% per year from
1993 to 1997. The 1997 Asian financial crisis highlighted the problems
in the Vietnamese economy and temporarily allowed opponents of reform to
slow progress toward a market-oriented economy. GDP growth averaged 6.8%
per year from 1997 to 2004 even against the background of the Asian
financial crisis and a global recession, and growth hit 8% in 2005.
Since 2001, however, Vietnamese authorities have reaffirmed their
commitment to economic liberalization and international integration.
They have moved to implement the structural reforms needed to modernize
the economy and to produce more competitive, export-driven industries.
Vietnam's membership in the ASEAN Free Trade Area (AFTA) and entry into
force of the US-Vietnam Bilateral Trade Agreement in December 2001 have
led to even more rapid changes in Vietnam's trade and economic regime.
Vietnam's exports to the US doubled in 2002 and again in 2003. Vietnam
hopes to become a member of the WTO in 2006. Among other benefits,
accession would allow Vietnam to take advantage of the phase out of the
Agreement on Textiles and Clothing, which eliminated quotas on textiles
and clothing for WTO partners on 1 January 2005. Vietnam is working to
promote job creation to keep up with the country's high population
growth rate. However, high levels of inflation have prompted Vietnamese
authorities to tighten monetary and fiscal policies.
