(VOVWORLD) - Vietnam's economy in 2020 achieved a surprising growth of 2.91% and is forecast to continue to grow at a high level in 2021, becoming a bright spot of the world economy, according to an article published in Japan’s journal Security Anpo, January edition.
In the article entitled "Overcoming the Covid-19 pandemic, Vietnam's economy grows favorably," Dr. Bui Manh Hung attributed Vietnam’s successful control of the Covid-19 pandemic to three main reasons: absolute trust in the Vietnamese government’s direction, strict compliance with the government instructions, and people’s unity and awareness of the dangers of pandemic.
With its success in pandemic response, Vietnam has worked out effective policies and measures to restore the economy, according to Security Anpo.
The author said Vietnam is attracting great attention from foreign investors. Signing many international agreements, Vietnam commits itself to creating favorable conditions for foreign investors. Many investors from the US, Japan, and South Korea want to move their businesses to the Vietnamese market or plan to start a business in Vietnam, the article said.
