Hardliners within the party will remain fearful that greater social freedoms will threaten the party's hold on power. The government will maintain its economic stimulus programme in 2010. 58ce039818dfbc790cd797a339a01586Mon, 02 Nov 2009 12:00:00 GBAsia Pacific/Vietnamhttp://www.reportbuyer.com/countries/asia_pacific/vietnam/vietnam_defence_security_report_q4_2009.htmlVietnam possesses an army with an abundance of operational experience and a strong level of political support for receiving military assistance. As a result, it has the potential to be a dominant regional player in both security and defence. Despite this, the largest inhibiting factor in industry development is a lack of infrastructure to produce technologically advanced equipment. 3bf9cc5928ab514c51b38fb2eeabddf9Sat, 10 Oct 2009 12:00:00 GBAsia Pacific/Vietnamhttp://www.reportbuyer.com/countries/asia_pacific/vietnam/country_report_vietnam_october_2009.htmlOutlook for 2010-11 The political landscape is unlikely to change dramatically in 2010-11, as the ruling Communist Party of Vietnam is virtually guaranteed to maintain its firm grip on power. After soaring to an estimated 9. 2% of GDP in 2009, the budget deficit will remain wide in 2010-11. fffa21b7cb3e6fc6e6aa421db6b6c2acWed, 07 Oct 2009 12:00:00 GBAsia Pacific/Vietnamhttp://www.reportbuyer.com/countries/asia_pacific/vietnam/country_report_vietnam_september_2009.htmlOutlook for 2009-10 The political landscape is unlikely to change dramatically in 2009-10, as the ruling Communist Party of Vietnam is virtually guaranteed to maintain its firm grip on power. The budget deficit (excluding on-lending) will widen to the equivalent of 9. 4% of GDP in 2009. 83cdb93ae2ce2595a193c6533931fbb5Tue, 08 Sep 2009 12:00:00 GBAsia Pacific/Vietnamhttp://www.reportbuyer.com/countries/asia_pacific/vietnam/country_report_vietnam_august_2009.htmlYou may have noticed that since the second quarter of this year some additional content has started to appear in your monthly and quarterly Country Reports. We are now including a country map, and a range of basic data (selected to be useful for business travellers in particular), in every Country Report. For most countries, except a few for which data is in very short supply, we are also including comparative economic indicators that show each country's position relative to regional peers, in an easy-to-read graphical format. baf02eb68427a8a7d97b3b31699399faWed, 05 Aug 2009 12:00:00 GBAsia Pacific/Vietnamhttp://www.reportbuyer.com/countries/asia_pacific/vietnam/country_report_vietnam_july_2009.htmlOutlook for 2009-10 The political landscape is unlikely to change dramatically in 2009-10, with the ruling Communist Party of Vietnam almost guaranteed to maintain its firm grip on power. Although the government has so far succeeded in managing the economy in such a way as to prevent a contraction this year, there are concerns over the potential negative side-effects of its stimulus efforts. The State Bank of Vietnam (the central bank) will maintain an accommodative monetary policy stance in order to support the economy. 48d9a96627d841d79cca50660f821a66Tue, 07 Jul 2009 12:00:00 GBAsia Pacific/Vietnamhttp://www.reportbuyer.com/countries/asia_pacific/vietnam/vietnam_defence_security_report_q3_2009.htmlThe Vietnamese military is comparatively larger than other regional forces and has an added strength having the top leaders' combat experience. However, its ageing platforms must be replaced if the military is to have any operational capacity within the next decade. There is an almost total absence of any largescale defence industry, which means the country has to import from abroad. cbbe431f26058c3d9d19cbf8b14271afTue, 07 Jul 2009 12:00:00 GBAsia Pacific/Vietnamhttp://www.reportbuyer.com/countries/asia_pacific/vietnam/country_report_vietnam_june_2009.htmlOutlook for 2009-10 The political landscape is unlikely to change dramatically in 2009-10, with the ruling Communist Party of Vietnam almost guaranteed to maintain its firm grip on power. The government's fiscal stimulus, estimated to be worth under US$4bn by the IMF, will be directed at a raft of infrastructure projects as well as other measures that will help to boost growth. In addition to fiscal loosening, the State Bank of Vietnam (the central bank) will maintain an accommodative monetary policy stance in order to support the economy. ccd6def2dc3cd501f473145db02f6a24Sat, 06 Jun 2009 12:00:00 GBAsia Pacific/Vietnamhttp://www.reportbuyer.com/countries/asia_pacific/vietnam/country_report_vietnam_may_2009.htmlOutlook for 2009-10 The ruling Communist Party of Vietnam will maintain its tight grip on power in 2009-10, rejecting calls (especially from groups of overseas Vietnamese) for political pluralism. The government's fiscal stimulus package includes spending on infrastructure, as well as tax breaks and a delay in the implementation of the new personal income tax regime. Given that the inflation rate is continuing to ease, the State Bank of Vietnam (the central bank) is likely to keep policy interest rates low in 2009-10. 1fb9d213c11650c109fe05a55ce5115bTue, 05 May 2009 12:00:00 GBAsia Pacific/Vietnamhttp://www.reportbuyer.com/countries/asia_pacific/vietnam/country_report_vietnam_april_2009.htmlOutlook for 2009-10 The ruling Communist Party of Vietnam will keep a tight grip on power in 2009-10, rejecting calls from some quarters (and especially from groups of overseas Vietnamese) for political pluralism. The government faces a severe test of its ability to manage the economy, and there is a risk that demonstrations (if only small ones) could occur as economic growth slows sharply and unemployment rises. The government will push ahead with economic stimulus programmes, while the State Bank of Vietnam (the central bank) will maintain an accommodative monetary policy stance in order to support the economy. 9978ecfe521f1208cf807c1bce61443dSat, 04 Apr 2009 12:00:00 GBAsia Pacific/Vietnamhttp://www.reportbuyer.com/countries/asia_pacific/vietnam/country_report_vietnam_march_2009.htmlOutlook for 2009-10 The ruling Communist Party of Vietnam will keep a tight grip on power in 2009-10, rejecting calls from some quarters (and especially from groups of overseas Vietnamese) for political pluralism. The government will put in place a US$1bn stimulus package, while also implementing tax breaks for individuals and small and medium-sized firms. The State Bank of Vietnam (SBV, the central bank) will continue to loosen monetary policy in order to spur economic activity. 720048fcdb1c346e8f7e02f56a361927Tue, 03 Mar 2009 12:00:00 GBAsia Pacific/Vietnamhttp://www.reportbuyer.com/countries/asia_pacific/vietnam/country_report_vietnam_february_2009.htmlOutlook for 2009-10 The ruling Communist Party of Vietnam will keep a tight grip on power in 2009-10, rejecting calls from some quarters (especially from groups of overseas Vietnamese) for political pluralism. The government will execute a US$1bn stimulus package, while also implementing tax breaks to individuals and small and medium-sized firms. The State Bank of Vietnam (SBV, the central bank) will continue to ease monetary policy to spur economic activity. 528f18655e0db0422ec1fcf3e9a2d982Mon, 02 Feb 2009 12:00:00 GBAsia Pacific/Vietnamhttp://www.reportbuyer.com/countries/asia_pacific/vietnam/country_report_vietnam_january_2009.htmlOutlook for 2009-10 The ruling Communist Party of Vietnam will keep a tight grip on power in 2009-10, but the risk of minor social unrest will heighten as economic growth slows and unemployment rises. The government's budget deficit will widen in 2009 as it pushes through a large fiscal stimulus package. Relatively slow revenue growth in the face of the economic slowdown will also contribute to this trend. 73ba8b361ed2c1bf8a988c1387ae5947Thu, 01 Jan 2009 12:00:00 GBAsia Pacific/Vietnamhttp://www.reportbuyer.com/countries/asia_pacific/vietnam/vietnam_isa_january_2009_country_report.htmlThis report contains detailed forecasts and analysis for Vietnam, including trade and investment analysis, economic forecasts, political risk assessments and demographic trend analysis.

In 2009-10 the fiscal accounts will be hit by lower revenue growth, while expenditure will remain high. As a result, the budget deficit (excluding on-lending) will widen significantly, to reach 6. 3b637a43dd3b7b3fbb532311c8a27f92Fri, 12 Dec 2008 12:00:00 GBAsia Pacific/Vietnamhttp://www.reportbuyer.com/countries/asia_pacific/vietnam/vietnam_defence_security_report_q4_2008.htmlVietnam's large and famously battletested army, strategic location and dynamic economy mean that it has the capacity to be a major regional player in terms of security and (if, for the time being, in low technology areas) defence production. Unlike most of its (near) neighbours, Vietnam does not have to contend with actual or potential internal conflict that stems from ethnic or religious disputes. There is competition with China (and, to a certain extent, other countries) over resources in the South China Sea. 2488ebf4ebbe98b12e8bbe0a5d98caf5Tue, 11 Nov 2008 12:00:00 GBAsia Pacific/Vietnamhttp://www.reportbuyer.com/countries/asia_pacific/vietnam/vietnam_business_forecast_report_q1_2009.htmlGlobal Slowdown Brings Risks To Economic Recovery Macroeconomic risks are on the rise again due to a deteriorating outlook for the important export sector and FDI disbursements in 2009 as key overseas markets dip into recession and foreign investors struggle to find financing. Weaker external demand will prompt the government and central bank to stimulate domestic demand through easing fiscal and monetary policy, which may create risks for the anticipated decline in inflation towards single digit levels over 2009. We are currently expecting GDP growth to remain weak in 2009, but to rebound to abovetrend growth of 9. 3822b6623298c32acdbaf6fc86d5415eTue, 11 Nov 2008 12:00:00 GBAsia Pacific/Vietnamhttp://www.reportbuyer.com/countries/asia_pacific/vietnam/country_report_vietnam.htmlOutlook for 2008-09 The Communist Party will continue to reject demands for major political reform and will remain indifferent to calls for political pluralism in 2008-09. Vietnam's leadership is plagued by endemic corruption and will need to prove that progress is being made in order to maintain its authority. The government is set to face a number of challenging policy issues in 2008-09, most notably the need to control inflation and to reduce downward pressure on the currency. c6c1ef9345359a897cd523ed4cd210a6Wed, 11 Jun 2008 12:00:00 GBAsia Pacific/Vietnamhttp://www.reportbuyer.com/countries/asia_pacific/vietnam/vietnam_business_forecast_report_q3_2008_1.htmlAnother Good Year Ahead Vietnam's GDP growth should remain above 8% throughout our five-year forecast period, despite the swan song of the domestic oil sector. Manufacturing has now taken over the baton as the mainstay of the economy and the sector should continue to expand on the back of its competitive cost structure. Rising inflation is, however, a threat to continued competitiveness and will be something the government has to deal more aggressively with in 2008. 124b508d664dfc497e8dd18c64fd8a64Mon, 02 Jun 2008 12:00:00 GBAsia Pacific/Vietnam
