Apple is also in talks to make Apple Watches and MacBooks in Vietnam for the first time. Apple suppliers Luxshare Precision Industry and Foxconn have started test production of the Apple Watch, as reported by\u00a0<em>Nikkei Asia<\/em>. A $220 million research and development facility has just been completed by Samsung in Hanoi. In July 2023, Samsung&#8217;s factory in Thai Nguyen will test the mass manufacturing of semiconductor chip grids.<\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-black-color\">On top of that, Vietnam has signed a wide range of free trade agreements (FTA), including the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership. The FTAs further support economic and trade diversification efforts.<\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-black-color\">Besides the favourable indicators, Fitch Solutions also points out some challenges for Vietnam. The country&#8217;s productivity and competitiveness remain hindered by a range of factors, such as high levels of government intervention in the economy through regulation and the dominance of state-owned enterprises in key sectors (including banking and mining).<\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-black-color\">Exports have proved resilient during the pandemic, although there is a number of near-term downside risks to the economy. These include high shipping costs amid a global shipping capacity crunch, which could weigh on manufacturing activity; a shortage of construction raw materials slowing project progress; and any resurgence of COVID-19 through subvariants which could result in further movement restrictions hampering a recovery in services and also disrupting factory operations.<\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"has-text-align-right wp-block-heading\"><strong>VIETNAM MANUAL TEAM<\/strong><\/h5>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vietnam is ranked as the fifth most open economy in Asia out of 37 nations evaluated by Fitch Solutions According to Vietnam Trade &#038;
