over the world during some decades ago, the new problems that are happening everywhere is the consequence of progress can be attract more concerns of economists That is the trade-off of economic achievements and the degradation of environment, the exploitation of natural resources, the global warming, the rise of sea level and so on The new concept about development sustainable development - now becomes familiar It is a new economic approach to express the development which care not only economic growth but also reservation of the natural resources, the environmental pollution, the investment on education From that point of view, by using data of 90 countries, the author hopes to find out the relationship between sustainable development and other determinants such as GDP growth, export of natural resources and agricultural products, urban population growth, Human Development Index, corruption impact and so on I strongly believe that the discovery of these relationships can provide some valuable lessons for development progress for developing countries and Vietnam Key words: sustainable development, economic growth, adjusted net savings iii • TABLE OF CONTENT DECLARATION

sustainable development That requires the transparency of policies, governance, laws and rules Though the impact of this factor is very little in many cases but the good institution can bring more opportunities for achieving sustainable development It is very clear in developed countries where they have very high CPI index Fourth, export of natural resources will lower adjusted net saving though this activity now is mainly income of many developing countries all over the world So the effective measurement for controlling the activity of the export of natural resources need to apply quickly and urgently because many natural resources need a long time for renew or reproduce Developing countries can limit this activity by investment more for manufactured industries then export of high value-added products by advanced technologies It will replace step by step the exploitation of natural resources for export raw materials Last, the age dependency ratio is a burden of society because they are not non working people, they not contribute for economic growth High rate of this factor also causes many social problems such as high expenditure for control crime, health care, education and so on For decrease of this ratio by creating jobs, extension working age as developed countries have done is a lesson for developing countries 6.2.2 For Vietnam context In Vietnam context, beside general suggested policies above, some extra valuable lessons can be considered as follows: Maintain economic growth rate with inflation rates under the acceptable control level by flexible fiscal and monetary policies Lessons can be structural trasformation from agricultural economy to service or industrial economy as Hongkong, Singapore, Taiwan In these countries, economic development came from shifting massively into service sectors by developing new fields like insurance, finance, away from manufacturing Supporting and developing industrial and manufacturing sectors, step by step decreasing the export of natural resources and raw agricultural products That requires strongly consideration from Government by some industrial policies like many industrial countries in Asia For example, in case of Taiwan, there are two stages for economic development, first stage is importsubstitution program in industry and second stage is import- substitution in the industrial 60 upgrading In case of Korea, economic development is facilitated by the Heavy Chemical Industry Drive and General Trading Comapny formation of 24 Increasing practical and valuable programs for limit the exploitations of natural resources and air polluted emissions are necessary All activities relate to this programs will be plant new forest, reservation of biological systems, recycle and re-use more materials which come from natural resources Increasing the control measurements for air emission, waste water pollution from domestic manufacturers in industrial zones; limit the uncontrollable of dangerous pollutants for environment, prevent the import of industrial pollutants from developed countries by applying international standards about the export and import raw materials Of course, a high rate of adjusted net savings are always good sign for sustainable development in Vietnam some years ago However, considering these trade-off problems between economic benefits and other activities as depletion of natural resources or environmental pollution are very important for policy makers All above solutions will be successful or not require the capacity of Government in the efficient governance by reducing corruption, stable financial system, policies for facilitating industrialization Success in these areas management can be help to improve sustainable development for Vietnam 6.3 Limitations of thesis title This paper uses adjusted net savings for evaluating sustainable development so the limit of measure this indicator will limit the value of this thesis The number of countries in this paper is limited within 90, some other effect such as trade, FDI are not account for 6.4 Further research From this paper, many problems open for a new series of studies in future This paper does not mention the impact of economic growth on strong sustainability, the relationship between weak and strong sustainability, the relationship between sustainable developmenteconomic growth- society development We can explore the effect of FDI on sustainability, the trade balance, the unemployment, inflation 24 Henry Y Wan Jr., Economic Development in a
