Hanoi (VNA) – Despite ongoing global economic uncertainties, rising trade protectionism, and strong supply chain restructuring, Vietnam continues to maintain its position as a strategic destination for foreign investment flows, according to Russia's news agency Sputnik.

Sputnik reported on December 15 that Vietnam continues to be viewed as a reliable destination for investors, supported by a stable macroeconomic environment, relatively consistent investment policies, and increasingly improved production capacity.

However, the newswire noted that rising regional competition requires Vietnam to gradually shift from pursuing large-scale investment to attracting high-quality capital centred on core technologies, innovation, value chain connectivity, and higher rates of locally made components./.
