The seminar is aimed at discussing the findings of the Changing Attitudes to the Market and the State 2011 report jointly produced by Vietnam Chamber of Commerce and Industry (VCCI) and the World Bank in Vietnam in cooperation with Irish Aid.
The report, based on a primary survey of over 1,000 respondents, documents the changing attitudes of Vietnamese towards the Market and the State. Specifically, it ascertains Vietnamese preference for state-led versus market economy, ownership of the enterprise sector, the role of the state in price determination, and transparency in policymaking and others.
The over one thousand respondents of the survey have been drawn from various part of the Vietnamese society including the National Government, Provincial Government or City Administration, Party’s Committee Office, Nation Assembly, wide range of enterprises, civil society organizations, media and international organizations.
