Former Indian Minister of Commerce and Industry Suresh Prabhu has hailed Vietnam as a shining example for developing countries, commending its remarkable integration into the global supply chain.

Deputy Minister of Planning and Investment Tran Quoc Phuong has outlined a set of comprehensive solutions to propel Vietnam's economy toward an 8% growth this year, setting the stage for even higher leaps in the future.

The US-based financial, economic, and stock market news site investing.com said Vietnam's economy demonstrated continued resilience in November, with a substantial trade surplus and growth in exports and imports.

As 2024 draws to a close, Vietnam’s economy is nearing the finish line of its annual targets, and continued efforts are needed to secure the best possible outcomes.

Vietnam has distinguished itself as one of the fastest-growing economies in the East Asia-Pacific region in 2024.

Vietnam's economy has continued to perform strongly in 2024, evidenced by the latest Asian Development Bank’s Asian Development Outlook, which highlights Vietnam’s impressive economic performance, said Hal Hill, an emeritus professor at the Crawford School of Public Policy at the Australian National University.

The National Financial Supervisory Commission, in collaboration with the Korea International Cooperation Agency (KOICA), organised an international conference themed “Vietnam’s financial market: Perspectives and policy orientations” in the south-central province of Ninh Thuan on December 12.

International organisations have maintained their robust growth forecasts for Vietnam this year as the economy has bounced back strongly despite external uncertainties and extensive damage caused by Typhoon Yagi.

Vietnam’s economy continued to receive positive assessments in August, including those from the World Bank (WB) that upgraded its growth forecast for this year to 6.1% from 5.5%.

The Southeast Asian economies remain steadfastly resilient and delivered credible economic growth in the second quarter of 2024, with Vietnam and the Philippines continuing as the region’s top two performing economies, growing at 6.9% and 6.3%, respectively, according to McKinsey & Company, a US multinational strategy and management consulting firm.
