Investment (MPI) and the United Nations Industrial Development
Organisation (UNIDO) launched the Vietnam Industry Investor Survey 2010
in Hanoi on October 19.
Surveys will be conducted in the nine cities and provinces in Vietnam
where most foreign direct investment and domestic enterprises are
located.
The sample surveys will be carried out at
1,644 manufacturing, utility and construction enterprises randomly
selected from Hanoi city, Hai Phong city, Vinh Phuc, Bac Ninh, Da Nang
city, Ho Chi Minh City, Dong Nai, Binh Duong and Ba Ria-Vung Tau.
The survey findings will be consolidated on the web-based interactive
“Vietnam Investment Monitoring Platform” which allows relevant
enterprises and individuals to make enquiries to better understand the
characteristics of Vietnam’s investment environment.
Do Nhat Hoang, General Director of FIA emphasised that through the
programme, enterprises would have the opportunity to get free access to
business partners, suppliers and potential customers who have been
taking part in the UNIDO international network of Investment and
Technology Promotion Offices.
According to a
representative of UNIDO, the survey will help policy makers generate
systematic evidence in assessing the impact of foreign investment sector
on the development of Vietnamese economy, especially in the industry
sector.
The survey also provides an analysis of the
dynamics of enterprises’ performance and enhances the State
institutions’s capacity in investment promotion and investment climate
improvement.
Over the next two years, similar
surveys will focus more broadly on other sectors of the economy, aiming
to design more efficient policies in investment attraction through MPI./.
