HCM City - Vietnam has become one of the world’s few economic bright spots attracting foreign investors, especially those from Australia, due to cheap labour, a young population, high education standards, and government incentive policies, experts have said.

FDI inflows into Vietnam will soon bounce back once the COVID-19 pandemic is brought under control, Chief Representative of the Japan External Trade Organisation (JETRO) in Hanoi Takeo Nakajima said on September 9.

The southern province of Dong Nai is seeking the green light from the government to add new industrial zones (IZs) to Vietnam's IZ Development Planning in 2020 to tap into the post-pandemic investment shift.

Meanwhile, opportunities might mainly focus in 2021-2022, then last until 2025, after the control of the pandemic. So these opportunities perhaps belong to industrial zones of which land fund is available.
