U.S. News & World Report: VN listed among top 10 Best Countries to Invest In

The nation overcame other Southeast Asian nations such as Malaysia, Indonesia and Singapore to be ranked among top 10 in the list. 

The article says: “Doi moi” economic policy reforms beginning in 1986 have helped Viet Nam transition to a more modern, competitive nation.

Viet Nam’s continued efforts to lessen international isolation are evidenced by its membership in the World Trade Organization in 2007 and participation in free trade negotiations with the Trans-Pacific Partnership in 2010. It is also a member of the United Nations, the ASEAN Regional Forum and the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation Forum, among other international organizations.

The Best Countries to Invest In ranking draws from the results of a global perceptions-based survey and ranks countries based on the highest scores among nearly 7,000 business decision makers on a compilation of eight equally weighted country attributes: corrupt, dynamic, economically stable, entrepreneurial, favorable tax environment, innovative, skilled labor force and technological expertise.

To determine the overall list, U.S. News & World Report surveyed over 21,000 people worldwide about 80 different countries, measuring them on 65 different attributes, including cultural influence, entrepreneurship, and quality of life.
