Vietnam’s labor productivity has been been surpassed by Laos and Cambodia is not far behind. Labor standardization and vocational skill development are facing ‘unprecedented’ challenges.
Nguyen Chi Truong from General Directorate of Vocational Training said at a recent workshop that Vietnam is trying to lure large foreign corporations, so it needs to prepare a good labor force. Foreign investors want workers with good skills.
The General Statistics Office (GSO) reported that as of Q2 2019, Vietnam had 55.46 million workers aged 15 and higher, accounting for 57.65 percent of the total population.
