The reason is thanks to the continued success of attracting FDI in the last months of 2023.
Deputy Minister Tran Quoc Phuong explained that in the last six months of the year, Vietnam has recovered strongly and achieved growth in attracting FDI, thanks to political stability, security and macroeconomics in Vietnam, the high-level diplomatic trip; At the same time, foreign investors see and evaluate the potential and prospects of Vietnam's economy in the coming years, considering Vietnam to be a very attractive destination.

Another issue of concern to FDI investors is human resources.

According to Deputy Minister Nguyen Quoc Phuong, large investors have very high demands on human resources. Although Vietnam has the advantage of abundant human resources and a golden population, it needs to focus more on the qualifications and skills of workers.
Another area that FDI investors are interested in is the institutional sector. According to the representative of the Ministry of Planning and Investment, in recent times, the Government has submitted and received approval from the National Assembly for many new and groundbreaking policies that have a positive impact on growth and investment attraction such as the Land Law and the Law on Investment Bidding and other laws. There are also regulations on immigration and visas... But in the coming time, there is a need for encouraging policies as well as creating maximum conditions for large-scale investors to carry out big projects in Vietnam.
