Vietnam needs to address fundamental issues in the manufacturing sector that, until now, have been masked by economic growth. The book shows that there is a dichotomy between domestic enterprises and enterprises supported by foreign direct investment. The dominant state-owned enterprises and foreign-invested firms are often not integrated with smaller, domestic firms through backward or forward links in the use of domestically produced inputs or intermediate products. Growth in the domestic light manufacturing sector has arisen from the sheer number of micro and small enterprises rather than from expansion in the number of medium and large firms. As a consequence, final products have little value added; technology and expertise are not shared; and the economy has failed to move up the structural transformation ladder. This structure of production is one of the reasons Vietnam's rapid process of industrialization over the last three decades has not been accompanied by a favorable trade balance"--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aWorld Bank e-Library. 606 $aManufacturing industries$zVietnam 606 $aEconomic development$zVietnam 606 $aJob creation$zVietnam 607 $aVietnam$xEconomic policy 607 $aVietnam$xEconomic conditions$y1975- 615 0$aManufacturing industries 615 0$aEconomic development 615 0$aJob creation 676 $a338.4/76709597 700 $aDinh$b Hinh T.$f1953-$01514291 701 $aMishra$b Deepak$f1968-$01576568 801 0$bNIC/DLC 801 1$bNIC 801 2$bDLC 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910789043403321 996 $aLight manufacturing in Vietnam$93854432 997 $aUNINA
