microfinance for the poor in Vietnam: The case of Tra Vinh province 2013 Chapter INTRODUCTION 1.1 Overview 1.1.1 Overviews of Vietnam Vietnam is a nation was damaged significantly by a terrible war in long time and it was ended in 30/4/1975 There are many challenges for Vietnam economy that was over Vietnamese people Most of the Vietnamese people lived in poverty stricken life, and the big numbers of Vietnamese people were illiterate after the end of the Vietnamese war The Vietnam economy depended on completely aids from communist countries in the war such as Soviet Union And then, Vietnam was a socialist country and had a subsidy economy After the end of the war, Vietnam economy also depended on many aids from socialist countries Governmental economy showed many weaknesses in control and management based on socialist models Especially, there is a failure of Soviet Union and communist countries in the world that effected significantly for Vietnam economy Besides, there was an economic embargo with Vietnam from America after they failed Vietnamese war Therefore, Vietnam had not opportunities access to developed countries in the world Vietnamese leaders were very bad economic management knowledge and they always leant social economy model which are causes of Vietnam economy were very weak from 1975 to 1986 In addition, corruption was a big problem in Vietnamese government that was created a drawback perspective for Vietnam economy In recent years, Vietnam economy has been changed significantly in many sides Vietnam is one of the countries with higher economic growth in Asia pacific (behind China and India) After 1986, Vietnamese leaders looked many weaknesses in economic management and the failure of socialist model The Vietnam changed completely economy that considered a period of reform in Vietnam economy Besides, American government decided to lift the embargo toward Vietnam Vietnam could open accessing to all countries in the world These are reasons for significant Vietnam economy growth Long Bui Thanh Page The microfinance for the poor in Vietnam: The case of Tra Vinh province 2013 Besides the success of economy, Vietnam also showed the interests in poverty reduction There were 60% Vietnamese population in 1990 lived a miserable condition after the war and the rate of poor population reduced 10% Vietnamese population in 2012 according to poverty standards of United National Organization (World Bank, 2012) There were about 8.85 million Vietnamese poor people, about 2.8 million poor households (Asia Development Bank, 2012) From these points show that was an effective change in the poverty reduction at Vietnam The percentages of poor people reduced significantly in the past years However, the numbers of poor people occupied a big amount of population The poor always were disadvantages of economic changes There are still more challenges facing the poor people day by day As the economy grows so it also creates high inflation, the increase of cost of goods adds to the disadvantages faced by the poor in the life Most of the poor lived in remote and rural areas and their jobs were complete farming They always were low education and limited opportunities accessing to modern information Therefore, they had to face poor life in long time Long Bui Thanh Page The microfinance for the poor in Vietnam: The case

of Tra Vinh province Tra Vinh province is one of the poorest provinces in Vietnam Tra Vinh province was established in 1992 Public infrastructures were very poor, the most of nature was agriculture

is ethnic minority (Department of Labor and Social Welfare Service of Tra Vinh province, 2013) The number of the poor always is a big interesting of local government and local people in many past years Most of the poor lived in lack of many sides such as low education, lack of material facilities, lack of modern information, etc Especially, Khmer objectives were many disadvantages of poor life conditions They had customs living in remote regions far urban areas such as shanties, home villages, and they limited to communicate modern society which created limitations of modern information, education, and modern society Chart 2: Tra Vinh province Map (Source: www.en.vietnamitasenmarid.com) Long Bui Thanh Page The microfinance for the poor in Vietnam: The case of Tra Vinh province 2013
