VTV.vn - Since opening up to foreign direct investment (FDI) 30 years ago, Vietnam has faced issues regarding the interactions between the FDI and domestic sectors.

In 2017, the export turnover of the FDI sector was three times more than domestic companies. In fact, last year the domestic sector's excess of imports accounted for over 26.1 billion US dollars while the FDI sector had a trade surplus of over 28.8 billion US dollars, which resulted in Vietnam having a positive trade of over 2.7 billion US dollars. It can be said that the domestic sector is in need of a great leap, specifically for supporting industries and supply chain participation.
