Friends of Viet Nam in Egypt

The quiet development of Vietnam economy:
The process of economic modernization in Vietnam has begun in the late 1980s, during the process of transition from the central socialist system to the disciplined and calculated economic and social openness, Where the private institutions have been emerged, and disposal of collective farms, and the issuance of laws regulating the use of private lands, and liberation of most prices, and the cancellation of many of the restrictions imposed on the activity of the private sectors, privatization of many institutions, and enter into partnership with private capital and diversified ownership structures, Opening the doors of the country to trade, free investment and liberalization of the financial sector, this openness worked to create a climate conducive to development, where the vitality and high morale prevailed among young people and lead them to turnout on work.
The disciplined economic transformation and social justice has been a prominent feature of Vietnam's peaceful growth process since the early 1990s until the end of the first decade of this century, which contributed to the transmission of about 40% of the population from below the poverty line to the middle class, Where all the population of the country shared the growth rate of 9% without discrimination for one category, Despite the recession that has hit the country since 2010, Where the growth rate declined to 5%. However, the infrastructure in the education sector, roads and the development of the tourism sector, the social justice system in the distribution of national income, all this has managed to preserve the economic and social earnings of the population.
The opening process has been a major success in Vietnam's development process, Which it benefited from its membership in the organizations, and international and regional agreements, since the opening process by more than a quarter of a century, Vietnam has become a member of more than 15 regional and international free trade agreements and organizations, such as The Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC), Economic Cooperation Strategy (Mekong), Asian Cooperation Dialogue, Asian and Middle East Dialogue, Asian Development Bank, Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific, Colombo Plan, in addition to many free trade agreements with many major economic powers such as Australia, the European Union, Japan, the United States, South Korea, Russia, Canada, Pakistan, China, India,
Vietnam has taken advantage of cooperative relations with these organizations and countries, not just as a market for its products, but as an economic partner by creating the right environment for attracting investments, either through the provision of skilled employment and infrastructure, or through Legislations that attract investments.
Vietnamese businessman Nguyen Tung Bung-tao, in cooperation with Singapore's wealth fund, GIC, has establish the first private airline named as Vet Get with a capital of $ 1.2 billion, making it among the top 30 companies in the term of the market value in Vietnam, and this after the state-owned “Vietnam Airlines” was the historical monopoly of the sector. On February 28, 2017, the company's shares began trading in the market of Ho Chi Minh City - the economic and financial capital of Vietnam. In the first deal on the company's shares, the share price rose 20% from the price at which the shares was floated, reflecting the great change that is occurring quietly in the nature and structure of the Vietnamese economy.

Although the agricultural sector, which employs about 50% of the labor force, is the main engine of the national economy in Vietnam, compared to 15% of the labor force in the industrial sector, 32% in the service sector, but Vietnam is classified as an industrial country, where the industrial sector contributes about 40% of GDP, While agriculture contributes about 22% of GDP.
The lessons learned from Vietnam's development experience can be put into a number of points.
First: optimal recruitment of resources, Vietnam is rich in natural and human resources, and has been able to employ these resources in a way that has benefited the most, especially the human resources which have developed a strategy for its development and improvement through a specific strategy and a high educational base and training programs linked to the labor market, which contributed greatly to attract a lot of factories and international companies to considered Vietnam as home, along with the advantages provided by the geographical location, and natural resources, especially agricultural and mineral resources.
Second, the thing that contributed to the success of Vietnam's economic experience is keeping the national characteristics and social justice, in which it provides an atmosphere suitable for the participation of all classes of society in making the success achieved by the country, by providing a sense that the achievement of that success is for all, and is not accounted for one class without the other , the thing that has generated an atmosphere of hope and desire to Work vigorously, and dedication, and to develop the spirit of creativity and innovation.
Third: Achieving the principle of common interests of trade and economic relations with countries and regional and international organizations, and adapting those relations to serve the national economy, either through the process of trade, opening their markets to national products, and equivalent competition that works to develop economic performance, or by attracting investments through the provision of legal and legislative structure, and to create a conductive environment to attracting investment, as these investments provide an employment opportunities for the labor force, and the transfer of modern technology developed by the international companies to the country.
The transfer of the experiences of countries that have achieved remarkable success in short periods of time, especially developing countries, is an important task that sharpens the motivation and motivates the activity to keep pace with those countries that have achieved high growth rates, as well as benefiting from the experiences of these countries, especially in cases of similarities at the economic, political and social level.

Vietnam and the Strategy of the emerging countries:
Upon talking with a friend, who was busy buying some of electronic devices for his son who is going to marry, I have found him trades-off between number of devices originating in Vietnam, and due to my interest in the countries to which Vietnam country belongs to (ASEAN Committee); the thing that increased my curiosity to know the reasons for his preferences to the Vietnamese products than any other products, and he answers me saying that these products from the cleaners, heaters and others are popular in the Egyptian market nowadays. I said that in the past we were compromising between the Japanese and German products and other European and American brands, then we move to trade- off between the Vietnamese, Indonesian, Thailand products and others. Has the time come and we approached to the trade-offs between Egyptian products? Especially that Egypt is similar to Vietnam in many aspects; the number of population is almost equal in the two countries «95 million people», but the area of Egypt more three times than the area of Vietnam.
Vietnam has followed the theory of “Regional Cooperation and Integration” to meet the challenges facing developing countries that seek progress, and this will be through searching for the bigger market, attracting investors and big corporations, through regional integration with neighboring countries , and this what I found of belonging to ASEAN Countries, this is what has strengthened its role in development, as the Association includes ten countries, mostly small countries such as Brunei, Singapore, Laos, along with some major powers also as for population such as Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philippines , but these countries find themselves big by belonging to an association or union which make them gathered with the rest of the other countries, so we find that affiliation is embodied in the flag-raising «ASEAN» Association in addition to the flag of each Member in the committee.
According to World Bank data in 2014, the Vietnam's economy is ranking 36th among the world economies by about 552.3 billion dollars in the terms of purchasing power, and the size of the total production of 191.5 billion dollars. Vietnam also achieved in 2015 a surplus in its trade balance which estimated at $ 13.7 billion, with exports of $ 165 billion, while imports were valued at $ 151 billion, ranking it the 28th among the countries of the world.
Among the total population of 95 million people, Vietnam has a labor force of almost 55 million people, it occupies the ranking of 12th in global workforce, while the unemployment rate is 3.5%, occupies the position of 30th globally, live below the poverty line about 11% of the population, Vietnam spends on education 6.3% of gross national income.
Vietnam is seeking, through its potentials that it is currently available to become one of the fastest growing economies in the world by 2050, in which Vietnam has the opportunity to be an industrial area and handling more cheap prices than China, along with its political stability, and oil discoveries, especially as it achieved in 2014 advantage over its partners from other countries «ASEAN» in terms of oil exports to the United States.
The Tourism sector has played an important role in the Vietnamese economy, in which it has a contribution of 16 billion dollars in 2015, equivalent to 9.3 % from GDP. In 2008, Vietnam have received about 4.2 million tourists and this number increased in 2015 to reach up to 7.8 million tourists, Vietnam is targeting to develop the tourist sector to receive 55 million tourists by 2050, in which Vietnam plans to establish a range of projects, including the construction of seven new touristic areas and development infrastructure especially in land road networks, sea networks, railways with China and neighboring countries. Vietnam have held bilateral and regional tourist agreements in order to be able to develop the infrastructure and roads with neighboring countries in the ASEAN committee, especially Laos, Cambodia, and Myanmar, also Vietnam have signed agreements with 22 countries whereby exempt its citizens from obtaining an entry visa to its countries including Britain, France, Germany, Russia, ASEAN Committee.
Egypt has ties with Vietnam on two levels, the first through the Treaty of Amity and Cooperation of the Association of «ASEAN», and the second through bilateral relations, as Egypt was among the first countries that established diplomatic relations with Vietnam in the wake of the Vietnam War in 1963, and since then, the relations between the two sides has developed, although it moves relatively slow, but in recent years has increased the volume of cooperation between the two countries, in which several cooperation agreements have been signed in various political, economic, cultural and commercial fields, as well as political coordination in international forums and organization.
The trade volume between Vietnam and Egypt has been raised during the year of 2014 to 396 million dollars versus 230 million dollars in 2013, with an increase 72%, in which the most important imports from Vietnam are (Seafood, fish, Cotton products, textile, black pepper, transportation, machines and equipment, machinery and equipment, electric and home devices, iron and steel), while the Egyptian exports are (Clothing and textile accessories, sugar, honey, plastic materials, chemicals).
The trade volume between Egypt and Vietnam does not reflect the volume of the two countries in terms of production or market that is provided by each party to the other, in addition to touristic cooperation, which has not been utilized so far in Egypt.
