“No one can deny the evident growth of Vietnamese manufacturing. It is at the heart of the country’s economy and seems to be marching unfalteringly against all odds. Revenues from exports and rising demands of the locals for products with higher quality have been the causes of the rapid materialization of the industrial and export processing zones. The real factors that have made it all happen for Vietnamese manufacturing is the transfer of technologies and knowledge. A major concern of the Vietnamese government is trade deficit; in other words, the country needs to up their industrial production for export while relying more on its supporting industries. The government has started tackling the problem by increasing import tariff on automobile parts and encouraging manufacturers to produce components and parts locally. Although electronics appliances have been part of the country’s export strengths, it is imperative that they continue improving their technological capabilities.
For Growth of Automotive Industry, 2009 promises to a great year for manufacturers in Vietnam. The Vietnamese government is pushing for increase of local content of automotive parts in a vehicle to 60 per cent by 2010.There are 35 Vietnamese auto assemblers and 14 FDI companies. Vietnamese companies have combined investment capital of USD 161 million. FDI = USD 691 million. Number of vehicles assembled in Vietnam increases yearly. Last year, 64,033 automobiles were assembled, 44,103 (68.87 per cent) by FDI. Vietnamese government considers auto assembly/manufacture to be a prioritized industry.
Growth of Electronics Industry, Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung has endorsed the master plan for the development of the electronics industry, targeting revenues of US$ 4-6 billion by 2010, with US$ 3-5 billion of that from export with annual growth rate of 20 – 30 per cent. The electronics sector is set to earn US$3 billion in export turnover in 2008, a 22.7 per cent increase over last year’s US$2.2 billion, with 95 per cent of products produced by foreign-invested enterprises.
Growth of Plastic Industry, The annual growth rate of the plastic industry in Vietnam around 30 per cent in recent years. Plastics is the third fastest export growing sector in Vietnam. Vietnam’s plastic packaging should remain strong, and get stronger, after WTO entry because of greater worldwide market access.
Moreover, Vietnam imported USD 5.7 billion worth of machines, equipment and spare parts from January to May 2008, a year-on-year surge of 42.5, according to the country’s General Statistics Office. The country also spent nearly USD 10.4 billion importing machines, equipment and spare parts in year 2007, up 56.5 per cent over year 2006. The rise reflects higher demand of enterprises in Vietnam for technology renovation.
