Vietnam Doi Moi reform anniversaries

Overview

Vietnam is commemorating the 40th anniversary of the ‘Doi Moi’ (Renovation) reforms and its 81st National Day. Since the implementation of these reforms in 1986, the country has transitioned from a war-torn, impoverished nation facing hyperinflation and food shortages into a dynamic, upper-middle-income economy with a GDP exceeding $500 billion.

Economic progress is highlighted by Vietnam’s role as a major agricultural exporter and a vital link in global production chains, supported by 17 free trade agreements. Recent data indicates a significant reduction in the multidimensional poverty rate to approximately 1.3% by 2025. While challenges remain regarding labor productivity and income gaps with developed nations, the nation’s economic growth has remained robust.

Moving forward, Vietnamese leadership is emphasizing a transition toward a new development model centered on science, technology, digital transformation, and innovation to foster a self-reliant economy. On the diplomatic front, General Secretary and State President To Lam has been active at the 81st United Nations General Assembly, engaging in bilateral meetings to strengthen international ties.
