Vietnam Asia's rising star the drivers behind the world's most exciting growth story Taylor, Brook creator author. Korsmoe, Sam author. Thayer, Carlyle A. writer of foreword. text bibliography th 2023 2023 monographic eng print xx, 227 pages ; 23 cm For more than 25 years, Vietnam has been one of the most dynamic countries in the world in terms of GDP growth, trade, investment, and other business metrics. The key question is whether or not the country can continue this growth for another 25 years. If it can, Vietnam will become a high-income country like South Korea and Taiwan, the original Tiger Economies of Asia. Engaging in conversations about Vietnam's future is challenging. Locals are often too focused on the present while foreigners are caught up in legacy and political issues of the past. Many observers also focus on the short term, a specific economic metric, or inevitably Vietnam's political system without considering the big picture or recognizing long term trends. The authors researched and analyzed a broad range of drivers to assess a possible future for Vietnam, and Vietnam - Asia's Rising Star is the result of these efforts.
