The Soviet-Style Central Planning Economy
- The central planning economy in Vietnam has been applied during the time of war until 1975 as
an appropriate mean for this period, as Vietnam had to mobilize all resources for the fight but it has been continued after the national reunification and was clearly inappropriate. Emphasizing State-owned economy, restriction the private sector, lacking incentives for farmer, inefficient public investment were the main causes for negative growth rate.
- The extend and scope of the central planning was not comprehensive ( only 105 indicators and
338 products and services).
- Vietnam has early recognized the weaknesses of the model of central planning economy and
started to elaborate a reform concept and applied experiences from other East European socialist countries since 1971 but hasn’t reached sufficient results.
- Industrialization by investing into state-owned enterprises, aiming to build an autarkic
economic structure, emphasizing heavy industries. The attempt was highly inefficient, costly
- n time and money.

Combination between grass-root initiatives and renovation at the top level
- The long fight of Vietnam emphasized the importance of
initiatives at the grass-root level.
- Grass-root experiments in agriculture in 1960s and 1980s
provided practical experiences for new political decision at the Political Bureau.
- “Fence-breaking movement in the SOEs leaded to acceptance
- f market elements in planning.
The “Doi Moi” Process started in 1986 but strongly implemented…
- The collapse of the Soviet Union in 1990 has pressed Vietnam for reform.
- Limited “shock-therapy” in 1989: price liberalization, introduction of positive
interest rate, canceling the dual price-system, compulsory procurement of agrarian products to low prices and stable supplying of foods according to coupons in urban regions. Immediate increase of rice production, export the very first 300000 tons of rice in 1989. Liberalization of crop trading for the private sector.
- The market incentives system could unfold the dynamism, creativeness and the
saving of Vietnamese people.
- Financial autonomy and “hard budget constraints” for the SOEs. Some thousand
small SOEs have been merged or dissolved in the period between 1990-92.

A review of Vietnam industrial policy
- Before 1989: Soviet-Style central planning economy. The collapse of
the Soviet Union deprived Vietnam huge material assistance and financial credit. Vietnam had to reform and diversify its international economic relations.
- 1989-2000: Market reform - a more diversified industrial structure and
integrated economy
- Imported private sector by FDI with strong incentives.
- SOE - high cost and not competitive internationally
- Some selective industrial policy – the car manufacturing,
motorbike industry, textile and garment (with some limited success) ….
A review of Vietnam industrial policy (continued)
- Since 2000: international integration combined with domestic reform.
- Bilateral Trade Agreement Vietnam-USA (2001), WTO (2007)
- Enterprise Law 1999 and amended 2005 encouraging the private sector,
Investment law 2005
- WTO accession in 2007 changed the rules for industrial policy:
- Before: Export subsidies, tariff and non-tariff barriers to trade, compulsory
localization, credit subsidies …
- Now: Focus on supply-side support. Domestic industry must be competitive
- n the Vietnamese market.
A review of Vietnam industrial policy (continued)
- Policies for FDI
- Special Economic Zones (EZ) since 1991 (EPZ, IZ …): 325 EZs with 95.000 ha land.
- Tax holidays and other privileges (land rent reduction)– to be reduced after WTO accession
- End of export subsidies
- But WTO accession greatly increased attractiveness for FDI
- HCMC: EPZ now only for high value products, no more garment
- Two Hi-Tech Parks to attract knowledge-intensive FDI, integrated concept incl. university
linkages etc.; limited success as for now
- Poor spillover effect on technological upgrading (no evidence)
- Licensing & localization strategies:
- Automobile industry: Licenses for 11 carmakers + Localization policy to encourage local
content → Unlikely to succeed (economies of scale, too many producers for a limited domestic market, supply-side constraints)
- Motorbike industry: Low-tech, large market. Successful localization, industry gaining
regional market share
GDP Growth Rate of Regional Economies
Target and Vision
- Aiming to establish a “basically industrialized and
modernized economy” in 2020, to reach a GDP/capita of 3000 USD/capita.
- In 2050 to reach the level of “an advanced economy” with
GDP/capita by 10.000 USD.
- Vietnam needs to conduct fundamental reforms in
institution, applying meritocracy, developing democracy and human rights, restructuring its economy, enhancing science and technology.
