2 Next weeks, my parents and I intend to go to Vietnam. I know we can go to Vietnam embassy to get visa on arrival, but it takes a long time. Is there any other way to get visa to Vietnam?...
I like to bring them via ship. Do i have to pay for tax for it if anyone know? And does anyone know a good ship or any transportation company that would love to take the offer? I am looking to get it ...
The answer to the question of where Vietnam gets their money is a moving target right now because Vietnam’s economy is exploding with very little that will slow it down. Clothing and shoe manufacturing has been (and still is) a booming Vietnamese industry, but that is giving way to high tech manufacturing and programming. Intel is building the largest chip manufacturing plant in Southeast Asia in Ho Chi Minh City. Bill Gates had been a frequent visitor to Vietnam and Microsoft executives practically live in the Caravelle Hotel now as they constantly look for more programmers. Does Vietnam make money in farming, industry, mining or tourism? The answer is yes to all of them plus a few more industries.
Someone’s occupation in Vietnam can be as diverse and anyone living in a developing or developed country. A problem employers have in Vietnam is retaining good employees. Young Vietnam professionals are regularly job-hopping due to a constant feed of new foreign businesses offering better pay. My cousin has changed jobs three times in just two years and received better pay each time he changed jobs.
What are three jobs a person might have? How about a computer programmer, civil engineer or a biochemist. I know one of each in Vietnam.

Farm in rural area.
Industry, high tech (young people) in the big cities.
Business (either big investment or local).
:D
Well... I think it kinda depends on where the person lives!!!

There's an influx of manufacturing jobs in Vietnam right now because the EU has placed a trade quota on China.
This means, they will only allow so much to be imported from China. So, companies are outsourcing to Vietnam now to get around the quota.
