Key economic development targets for 2026–2030 set by the 14th National Congress of the Communist Party of Vietnam (CPV)— focused on science – technology, innovation, FDI attraction, and average annual growth of 10%—are strategically sound but also pose significant structural challenges, said a Malaysian expert.

VOV.VN - The British newswire fdiintelligence.com has published an article, highlighting why many Asian economies, Vietnam in particular, are able to effectively leverage foreign direct investment (FDI) to achieve economic growth, while others struggle to convert inflows into sustainable development.

A series of large-scale foreign direct investment (FDI) projects were granted investment registration certificates in November, contributing to Vietnam’s strong FDI performance in the first 11 months of the year.

VOV.VN - Vietnam reported US$33.69 billion in registered foreign investment as of November 30, up 7.4% from a year earlier, government statistics showed.

Vietnam’s adoption of the global minimum tax marks a strategic step that demonstrates the country’s responsibility and proactive integration with international standards, aiming to both retain existing investors and upgrade the quality of foreign direct investment (FDI) in the years to come.

Vietnam is on the threshold of becoming a developed nation, Deputy Prime Minister Ho Duc Phoc has said, stressing the importance of renewing the growth model, fostering new drivers of growth, and building a resilient, sustainable economy capable of withstanding global fluctuations.

VOV.VN - Thai newswire thailandbusinessnews.com has recently published an article, emphasising Vietnam’s emergence as one of the region’s top destinations for foreign direct investment (FDI), driven by its dynamic young workforce, favourable trade agreements, and stable political environment.

VOV.VN - Vietnam is increasingly seen as a bright spot on FDI attraction amid global economic uncertainties, thanks to its strong post-pandemic recovery and dynamic industrial real estate market, said Trang Bui, head of Cushman & Wakefield Vietnam.

Despite a dip in the number of newly established firms, Hanoi recorded strong foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows in the first four months of 2025, signalling an increasingly attractive investment climate in the capital.

As one of the most open economies in the world, coupled with robust infrastructure development, an improved business climate, political stability, and competitive incentive policies, Vietnam continues to be an ideal destination for foreign direct investment (FDI) enterprises.
