About Vietnam Vietnam is at the crossroads of the Pacific Ocean and the Indian Ocean. With an approx. area of 330,967 sq.km, Vietnam is roughly the size of Italy or Mexico. The country's population is estimated to be 98 million as of 2019 making it 15th most populous country in the world. Vietnam shares its land borders with China, Laos, Cambodia and maritime borders with Thailand through the Gulf of Thailand, and the Philippines, Indonesia and Malaysia through the South China Sea. Its capital city is Hanoi, and its most populous city is Ho Chi Minh City, also known by its former name of Saigon. Just 34 years ago, Vietnam was one of the poorest nations in the world and suffered a lot during the 20 year long war, which ended in 1975. By the 1980s, the per capita GDP was $ 200-300 and the country's GDP was around USD 19 billion. The communist party of Vietnam had introduced an economic reform “Đổi Mới” (Renew/Renovation) in 1986 with the objective to create a Socialist oriented market economy and since then the country has never looked back. Vietnam’s burgeoning economy has a plethora of opportunities, and the country’s robust manufacturing sector is compelling for companies to exit China and set up base in Vietnam.
