Vietnam is in the position to reap further economic and political success, and the Communist Party of Vietnam’s 13th National Congress will be a factor that helps ensure the nation’s political stability, according to Stratfor, a US-based geopolitical intelligence platform.

Meanwhile, in an article published on January 28, the Bloomberg said Vietnam is seeking to boost the role of the private sector in the economy as a push for higher growth and productivity.

According to official plans, Vietnam targets to become a developing country surpassing the lower middle income level and having a modern-oriented industry by 2025, a developing one with a modern industry and upper middle income by 2030, and a developed one with high income by 2045./.
