  • Most of ASEAN agro-based economies has successfully adopted the

1st Green revolution, but inequality of income distribution among rural and urban areas exists

  • Crop yields have multiplied with the applications of scientific research

and development, new farming techniques and irrigation

  • Quality of products, capital resources management and marketing

capability developments are evidently improved

  • In terms of employment, agriculture remains the biggest component of

the ASEAN economies, it accounts for some 70% of the total employment

  • Agricultural development continues to be vital to overall economic

growth due to the multiplier effect factor, despite declining contribution of agriculture as a percentage of GDP

  • Over 20% of food exports to developed countries comprises

processed foods (or three times the amount from developed countries)

  • The food producing economies in ASEAN + China are becoming a

major world producer and supplier of food

Thailand NIS in Brief Thailand NIS in Brief

  • Thailand is similar to the East Asian NIEs by having its economic

structure change from an agriculture-based economy to an economy in which the industrial (manufacturing in particular) sector has gain distinctive significance.

  • Low technological capability in Thai firm
  • No articulated government policy to support innovation process
  • Dynamic and high growth rate after financial crisis
  • Static change in academic programme to support new economy, but

high demand in private sector seeks human resources from abroad

  • Transformation can be seen now:

✿ Several conglomerates increased their R&D ✿ A number of smaller companies collaborated with university R&D groups. ✿ Subcontracting suppliers were forced to strengthen their technological efforts. ✿ Emerging new own-designed, start-up firms

Siuation of Vietnam agro-food processing industry (1)

  • Agro-product processing of Vietnam is still less developed,

leading to low quality products and economic inefficiency;

  • However, food processing sector is growing:

– 6.7% of GDP in 1991 – Food processing growth of 14% annually while GDP growth of only 8.9% annually during 1991-1997

  • The total estimated value of food processing is 2 billion US$

(1997), representing 8.8% of GDP and 35%of industrial value added;

  • 5000 rice milling units with total capacity of 20,000 tons/day (1000

SOEs and 4000 private ones);

  • 13 SOEs of vegetables and fruit processing. Most units with 100%

foreign capital use imported equipment and technologies, can produce high quality products mainly for export;

  • 50 Coffee processing units (14 equipped with foreign technologies)

Siuation of Vietnam agro-food processing industry (2)

  • 75 tea industrial processing and 12,000 private processing units
  • 53 sugar processing units with equipment imported from various

countries

  • A few processing units for livestock products and fish

Challenges/issues for Vietnam food processing industry

Unstable, fragmented and low-quality supplies of raw material for processing. Lack of capital for investment to expand the production areas and modernise the equipment and technologies. Poor infrastructure such as transportation means, storage facilities. Lack

  • f

highly-qualified people, both technically and managerially. Low investment in research on processing. Lack of specific and realistic Government policies for the promotion of processing.

  • Vietnam is similar to Thailand and other East Asian NIEs by having its

economic structure change from an agriculture-based economy to an economy in which the industrial (manufacturing in particular) sector has gain distinctive significance.

  • Low technological capability in Vietnam firm
  • Weak interactions among actors

– weak links between research and industry; – domestic enterprises underestimate potential support of local research institutions; – Miss-match between capabilities at R&D institutions and technology demand of enterprises

  • Poor institutional framework for innovation:

– Lack of intermediary institutions/agencies for facilitation of innovation process; – Policies not consistent and sometime conflicting each other;

  • Lack for motivation of innovation

– limited investment by enterprises to use and exploit technologies; – Limited technology learning of enterprises from foreign partners; – No venture capital

Interfacing TF with Strategic Planning and Decision Making in Vietnam: some challenges

  • Follow-up with the results from TF for users;
  • From user side: long-term visions are temporally

not the centre of attention among manager and business communities;

  • From supplier side: very beginning stage of

capacity building can not supply and prove more evidence of success to potential clients

Opportunities

  • Upgrading to higher

manufacturing standards and technological innovation

  • planning agricultural

development in more dynamic and holistic ways

  • To become “industrial” in the

form of “factory production”

  • Large-scale industrial systems

for growing and breeding, production and processing can be introduced to manufacture food products for the world market Threats

  • Trade and non-trade barriers
  • Higher quality and standard

demands from importers (HACCP, ISO 14000 etc.)

  • Price competition from lower

cost economies

  • Decreasing of labour and

professions in related fields (farming and fishery in particular, in Thailand and Malaysia)
