according to my opinions, Vietnam can only follow China.
Furthermore, I am not sure Vietnam can catch up Thailand or Malaysia,
let alone catching up with Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore.

I am worried that Vietnam cannot even catch up with India.

Unless many leaders of Viet Nam and Viet Kieu work together
and many Vietnamese and many Viet Kieu work together,
I don't see how Vietnam can catch up and become the best.

yup its never gonna happen

i don't agree that vietnam can only follow china... part ... IMO we should not follow ANY country ... we should do things our own way ....what works for other countries does not mean they will work for our country ..... the first thing first ... we need to get rid of the corrupt government ....... someone needs to step up and fired all those old man in the government .... and also ... if the viet Americans want vn to be a better place then THEY SHOULD STOP HOLLERING about democracy and all those junk .....

If Vietnam can be like Japan or Singapore then holy moly bless the people. But in reality, Vietnam is following China footstep----good luck. The Vietnamese gov. like to kiss China's behind more so than they think.

What do you mean by "kissing China's behind"? What do they have to offer us? Do you even know that our biggest trading partners are the U.S and the EU?

This thread is pretty stupid.

Vietnam compare with what Province of China : Province of Taiwan ? Kwangdong ? ( Province-level status ) of Shanghai ? Also China has one child-per-family policy ... Let us see VN 's goose - stepping

You watch as VN take over the world in the future. VIETNAM MUON NAM

OK, ntn

I watch.

they only way for vietnam to catch up with japan and korea if if they divide north and south vietnam up with two seperate democracy. And let me run south vietnam. If i was prisident at the age of 22 then we might a chance, seriously. Help me rum campaigne to be the next prisident.

Shut up.

You need to hire a campaign staff, starting with a paid editor, pal.

China is America 's biggest trade partner .
VN is never gonna be the US 's third , fourth , even tenth or so down the line ... trade partner ,
and looking across the Pacific Ocean instead of working on the reason next door ? I say "Hoàng tinh hồng kỳ " (cờ đỏ làm sao vàng )

according to my opinions, Vietnam can only follow China : Scary !!! Chinese will always move to other places for better opportunities 4 EVA !!! Yes , even to work as supervisors in VN !!!
