Vietnam spent more than 5 billion USD in 209 projects in Laos
The majority of Vietnam's foreign investment to date has gone to Laos, with the Vietnamese Minister of Planning and Investment, this is the case. Evidence suggests that the bulk of Vietnam's FDI has been invested in the Laotian economy. Vietnam's Minister of Planning and Investment was kind enough to share this data with us. Nguyen Chi Dung, Vietnam's current Minister of Planning and Investment, has said that his country's foreign investors had mostly flocked to Laos. Until recently, Laos has been the primary recipient of Vietnamese FDI. This tendency is expected to go on for the foreseeable future.
As a direct result of an increase in the number of nations that have established a physical presence in Laos as a result of foreign investment, Vietnam has moved up to the third place on the list of these countries. The total amount of money that Vietnamese enterprises have invested in Laos has been consistently increasing over the course of the last several years, and it is anticipated that this pattern will continue into the foreseeable future. The United States of America contributed a total of $118.3 million in assistance to the government of Laos in the year 2021. This is a 33 percent increase above the amount of help provided the year before.
Authorities in Laos have shown their appreciation for the work that has been completed on a number of different projects since it has been done in a reliable and effective manner. Throughout Laos, we have completed a wide range of projects. More money may be set aside in the coming years for a number of these possibilities. Generally speaking, this expansion is to be expected. Potentially applicable to a wide range of subjects. This expansion will show up in every manner possible.
The Lao side extended an offer of assistance in resolving the issues that had slowed progress on many vital projects. They also offered assistance in fixing the problems that had slowed down many other initiatives. The Vung Ang port, hydropower plants in the Luang Prabang area, and hydropower plants in the Xekaman 3 region were only a few of the projects that were undertaken.
Minister Dung said that the two nations will be able to work together more closely in the sector of investment in the near future. He mentioned this in his speech. He predicted that the frequency of such events would rise.
Reissued commitment certificates for Vietnam might be seen in the year 2019. The total capital expenditure for the 61 projects for which these certificates are issued is $409.1 million US. These diplomas were given out as recognition for a job well done. After adjustments, the sum granted in 2021 is 28.6 percent more than the amount awarded in 2020.
The vast bulk of Vietnam's investment capital goes into initiatives in the fields of science and technology, agriculture, forestry, and fisheries, as well as commerce at both the wholesale and retail levels. A significant amount of these costs is also allocated to the provision of support services. At the present time, the government of Vietnam is making concerted efforts to attract international investment in a variety of sectors. These several industries provide an incredibly sizeable percentage to the total gross domestic product of Vietnam.
