Overseas Vietnamese play an important role for Vietnam’s success
2/5/19
Vietnam has been reunified for 44 years. Over the past 4 decades, overseas Vietnamese have contributed remarkably to Vietnam’s reconstruction and development, making their homeland more competitive on the global arena.
The Vietnamese Party and State have consistently affirmed the essential role of Vietnamese people living overseas in national construction and defense, noting their contributions have proven to be a catalyst for the country’s success.
In recent years, hundreds of overseas Vietnamese have returned home, participating in sectors concerning science, technology, education and training, human resource training, startup ecology, and have contributed their perspective on major national issues.
Mr. Nguyen Thanh My, a Vietnamese businessman from Canada, invested in smart agriculture development in the Mekong River Delta to reduce farmers’ workload.
My and his associates created a smart water meter to monitor the quality of water local farmers use for cultivation. He also created automatic pumps and smart fertilizer to reduce green house gas emissions.
Dany Vo Thanh Dang, a young overseas Vietnamese from Singapore, said he wants to invest in education and training in Vietnam. He noted, “Vietnam is a major potential market. It’s like a fertile piece of land just waiting to be cultivated. That’s why many Vietnamese people living overseas want to return home to do business.”
Tran Hai Linh, who lives and works in the Republic of Korea, said, “With a certain understanding of the relationship between Vietnam and the Republic of Korea, we will work harder to promote cooperation between the two countries, especially in education, economy, and trade. We are ready to serve as a bridge to connect Vietnamese enterprises and localities with their Korean partners.”
Kim Bo Ngo of Canada said, “I think Vietnam boasts a lot of opportunities. Young people like me can connect Vietnam with the world. We want to return to Vietnam to support our country’s development.”
Vietnamese leaders have pledged to create the best conditions for overseas Vietnamese to contribute to their homeland. They have met Vietnamese people living overseas more regularly to address their problems.
By 2018, Vietnamese overseas had invested in more than 3,000 projects in Vietnam with a total registered capital of 4 billion USD./.

The Party and Government consider the OV community an integral part of the nation, hoping that they would enhance solidarity, treasure traditional cultural identity and serve as a bridge to connect Viet Nam and their host countries.
They have made efforts to build a solid community and hoped that the Party and Government would continue their support while creating favourable conditions for them to invest in their homeland and contribute to the country's development.
Overseas Vietnamese– a catalyst for Vietnam’s success.
Vietnamese living aboard would continue to help with Viet Nam's nation building and protect their homeland's territorial integrity.
The importance for Vietnamese, whether they live inside or outside of the country, to stand united in order to overcome obstacles and challenges in building the homeland and elevate the status of Viet Nam in the international community.
This helped foster national solidarity, improve patriotism and the image of Vietnamese people abroad.
Overseas Vietnamese should be entrusted with major government programmes to attract more of them back to contribute to the country's development.
Overseas Vietnamese always have their heart in their home country. I deeply appreciate their contribution to the city's development.
the overseas Vietnamese community was consistently considered an integral part of the nation, adding that the Party and Government would continue supporting and creating favourable conditions for OVs to integrate into host countries and make further contributions to national development.
Each Vietnamese expat is an ambassador, who helps promote Vietnamese culture abroad.
