of revolutionary science and technology accumulation concentration leads to the formation of economic unity The economic integration between countries affects the economies of countries in particular and world in general It is a great development of the world economy has changed.The birth of organizations such as WTO, EU, ATA… and many other development triangle brought by globalization According to the general trend of the world, Vietnam has been gradually trying to take initiative international economic integration This is not a temporary target task that vital to the economy of Vietnam today as well as in the future A country that goes against the general trend of the world will soon become outdated and isolated country sooner or later and it also rejected the international arena Furthermore a developing country actively integrating into the regional economy and the world is even more necessary than ever The concept of international economic integration International economic integration is the process of attachment of organic economy of a country with the world economy contributed to the exploitation of recourses in an effective manner Specifically, international economic integration is a process of active concurrent execution of two things: on one hand, attached to the market economy and individual countries to regional markets and the world through the efforts made to open the door to international markets and promote the regional liberalization of the national economic and on the other hand, join and contribute to the construction of regional and global economic institutions Economic integration could be bilateral – that is between the two economies, or regional – that is between groups of economies and multilateral – that is a worldwide scale as what the world trade organization is heading for 2 The effects of international economic integration to all countries International integration is an evitable trend of the World, it is also the path of development and it cannot be different for other countries in the era of globalization to join international integration 2.1 Positive effects: o Help to expand the market to promote trade and other international economic relations from which promoting growth and economic – social development o Create a force for economic restructuring, improving business and investment environment from which improving efficiency and competitiveness of the economy, of the products and enterprises at the same time, also increased the ability to attract investment into the economy o Help to improve the level of human resources and the national science and technology through co-operation in education and training, siencetific research with other countries, receive new technologies through direct investment and transfer of technology from advanced countries o Increase opportunities for domestic enterprises to approach international market, credit sources and other interantional partners o Create opportunities for individuals to benefit from goods and products as well as variety of services, designs and quality with competitive prices to access and interact more with the world from which having the opportunity to develop and find jobs both domestically and internationally o Create conditions for policy maker to better grasp the situation and development trend of the world from which can be worked out approriate policies for developing countries and margininalized o Help to add more value and cultural advancement and civilization of the World, enriching the national culture and promoting social progress o Create a driving force and condition comprehensive reforms towards contraction of open society, democracy and legitimate state o Create conditions for individual country to find a suitably location in the international order, greatly enhanced prestige and international position as well as the ability to maintain security, peace and stability for development o Help to maintain peace and stability in the region and international to focus on the development and opening up the possibility of coordinating efforts and resources of the country to solve the issues of the common interests of the region and the World 2.2 Disadvantages and Challenges: o Increase the fierce competition caused many difficulties to enterprises and economic sectors even bankrupt and caused many economic-social consequences o Increase dependency of national economies into the outside market and therefore make the economy vulnerable to the vicissitudes of international market o No equitable distribution of benefits and risk for the courtiers and different groups in the society hence increasing the gap between rich and poor o In the progress of integration, the developing countries face the risk of disadvantages of economic restructuring naturally due to the incline of focusing on resource-intensive and labor-intensive industries but having low added value Therefore they could easily become industrial waste yards and having low technologies, exhausted nature resources and environment destruction o Can create some challenges to state authority (as the annual tradition of independence and sovereignty) and complexity of maintaining security and stability of the developing countries o May increase the risk of national identity and traditional eroded before the “invasion” of foreign cultures o Could put all countries at rash of the growth of international terrorism situation, smuggling, transnational crime, disease, illegal immigration… Thus, integration both simultaneously brought the benefits and disadvantages to the countries However not every integration is full entitled naturally to all benefits and bear all the disadvantages that mentioned above The benefits and disadvantages, generally in the form of potential and very different from individual countries due to differences of conditions, circumstances and level of development… The exploitation of the benefit and the limits of disadvantages as well as challenges depend on many factor of each country and foremost the strategy, policy, integration measures and the implementation In fact, many countries have exploited very successfully opportunities and benefits of integration to achieve the growth and development of high socio-economic stability for may consecutive years, quickly got along with new industrial countries and made a respectable international position while successfully handling the challenges of disadvantages and integration process which is the case of South Korea, Taiwan, Hongkong, Singapore, China, Malaysia, Mexico, Brazil… Some countries, although still achieved many benefits from integration but not handling successfully the downside of this process hence it faces many difficulties and challenges It can mention to the case of Thailand, Africa, Philippines, Indonesia, Vietnam, Greece, Portugal, and Spain… However, ultimately the benefits that most countries have obtained form the integration process is greater than the price they pay for the negative effects in term of economic growth and economic development This explains why international integration becomes policy options of most countries in the World today The concept of regional economic integration: Regional economic integration is the same form as the global economic integration but has it own characteristic as follows: o Regional and the number of participants is less o But the content of cooperation is more diverse,so the relationship is more binding than the global integration o Theoretically, regional economic integration conflicts with the global economic integration because it can lead to discrimination between the regional economic organizations with the rest of the world But actually the regional economic integration is a good supplement to the process of global economic integration 3.1Basic content of regional economic integration o Trade liberalization is often reduced trade barriers in more areas compared with the global economic integration Also combined with the certain extent of the contents of financial liberalization and investment in the region o Close cooperation in various fields: economic, security - politics; culture - society science – technology, education - training, resource protection, environmental control… o Formed a common market and eliminate most regional trade barriers, for example the case of using common currency, closely coordinate the policy to enhance the competitiveness of the entire region 3.2 The inevitable objectiveness of regional integration The institutional integration of regional economic growing very fast when globalization was interrupted, especially after World War II to the end of the 1980s.During the development, the contents and mode of regional cooperation included characteristics of discrimination has been refined and abolish In fact the organization of regional cooperation has become the bridge to help developing (and poor) countries approaching to global economic integration more stably WTO has also accepted the regional trade agreements as a special exception (see the interpretation of Article XXIV GATT agreements.1994) Based on that, the regional economic integration has proved to be trend of development objectively.Today, the regional cooperation has developed very strongly, extremely complicated intertwined and closely linked to the relations of global economic integration 3.3 Opportunities and challenges of countries in regional economic integration In principle, the benefits from economic integration and globalization complement one another Hence the opportunity from two levels of regional economic integration and globalization has interacted closely to create a more positive effect We can see opportunities that stand out from economic integration as follows: 3.3.1 Access to international market: o The mutual market access between countries in the region is more easily than global economic integration, due to conditions and route of integration is more convenient through the establishment of good relation with a country, it can reach the market of the whole region in which the country is a member o For industrialized countries: very easily won competitive advantages in the market for industrial products and services in the region compared with the competition from outside and has a stable supply of resources-intensive products and labor from the developed countries in the region 3.3.2 Attracting international investment: o Mutual investment in the region is more convenient because of short distance, similarity of weather, climate, culture; society Therefore, the expansion of production of whole region is also easier, that allows the exploitation of comparative advantages supporting between countries to positively reduce production cost o Attract investment (FDI & FPI) from investors outside the region will increase, due to the geographical connection, market and the policy making the potential market is stronger, because market scale has included the whole region and in particular, the invest environment of the area will become more attractive o For industrialized countries: easily access the investment into industries and services with high added value by developing countries in the region o For developing countries: many opportunities to attract capital and technology of industrialized countries in the region to promote industrialization and modernization of the economy 3.4 The challenges for countries in the regional economic integration The interaction between the regional economic integration and global also shows both in terms of challenges and difficulties Difficulties arising from this level of integration will inevitably cause strong negative effects on other levels of integration Below are typical challenges of the regional economic integration: 3.4.1 Common challenges, regardless of the level of national development o The rapid spread of regional financial crises - currency increases the risk of global economic crisis o If the coordination of economic policy having the domestic trend, it will slow the overall development of the whole region 3.4.2 Industrialized countries: o Increase the burden of economic and technical assistance o The risk of invasion of the cheap labor o Suffered the risk of commercial fraud and piracy of intellectual property in relations with the developing countries of the region 3.4.3 Developing countries: o Weak crisis resistance, more affected severely, the ability to recover more slowly o The risk of invasion of high-quality product lines from industrial countries o Due to less of choice of opportunities therefore in many cases only receive outdated regional technology.Thus, environmental pollution and invasive effects also harder than industrial countries 3.5 The institutions of the countries in the the regional economic integration When participating in regional integration, the countries must also comply with the following institutions and they are divided into: 3.5.1 Regional Trading Agreement – RTA: o The main content is to liberalize trade, preferential treatment for imports in the region than outside 3.5.2 Maintain regional trade barriers, but lower tariffs and eliminate non-tariff barriers 3.5.2 Instituation to low level of regional integration: 3.5.2.1 Free Trade Agreement or Free Trade Area – FTA:  Liberalization & facilitation of trade (virtually eliminated regional trade barriers) but no binding unified tariff barriers for external; coordinate the favorable policy than Customs Union  Many cases of FTA formed between a large group with a more developed country In particular, the program may apply "early harvest" of tariffs before completing the other objectives of the FTA 3.5.2.2 Customs Union:  Liberalization & facilitation of trade (virtually eliminated regional trade barriers) unified the regional tariff barriers for goods imported from outside;  Causing trade diversion and many problems arise when coordinating policy among union members 3.5.2.3 Common Market:  Liberalization and trade facilitation as a customs union  Combined with financial liberalization and investment, enabling the production factors (capital & labor) moved freely in the region  Common market transition towards the establishment of economic union and monetary 3.5.3 Institution to high level of regional integration 3.5.3.1 Economic and Moneytary Union – EMU:  Basically, this is a common market that use a common currency for members  Unified economic policy and monetary policy (one central banks )  The Union economic and monetary is a transitional step towards the establishment of regional union 3.6 Opportunities and challenges of Vietnam and domestic enterprises in regional economic integration Economic globalization has now become a common trend of the era that countries, nations cannot be ignored Globalization, Vietnam is not beyond the trend of trade liberalization Global economic integration is objective indispensability The process of globalization has affected the economy of the countries especially for Vietnamese enterprises while Vietnam participates more deeply into the international economic integration 3.6.1 Marco scale The trend of regional economic integration movement has never stopped In particular, in the 90s of XX century, the establishment of a free trade area (FTA) was the most powerful flare up after the failure of the Doha round of World Trade Organization (WTO) Unable to upgrade soon multilateral trading system, countries step by step resources to build regional integration on a smaller scale but more effectively From 2001 to now, there were around 400 bilateral and regional FTAs appeared to the scale and different forms.Compared with the liberalization commitments under the WTO, the regional economic integration usually level market opening strongly, deeply and much more radically In addition to the removal of tariff barriers and non-tariff, the FTA often offer liberalization commitments in many areas such as trade and services, investment, and even willing to cooperate on non-traditional areas in commercial systems such as labor standards, environment Vietnam approach and participate FTA very early As soon as to be a member of ASEAN in 1995, Vietnam has begun to make reduction of tariff according to tariff preferable programs which are generally effective to establish a Free Trade Area ASEAN (CEPT / AFTA) since 1996 Overcoming many challenges, very new in the early stages of integration, Vietnam has implemented smoothly CEPT / AFTA In 2006, Vietnam completed the CEPT / AFTA for making the most tariff rates on the margin of 0-5% The non-tariff barriers such as quotas, permits, quality standards are gradually harmonized with the corresponding other ASEAN economies Thanks to a member of ASEAN, Vietnam is not only approach partners’ markets in a more convenient way but also have the opportunity to protect the domestic production with a longer route Since 2002, based on close connection with ASEAN, Vietnam also gradually participate the FTA between ASEAN and many partners in the region In 2004, the Free Trade Area ASEAN - China (ACFTA) was established In 2007, built Agreement Free Trade Area ASEAN - Korea (AKFTA) was signed In 2008, the Agreement on Comprehensive Economic Partnership ASEAN - Japan (AJCEP) was signed with the aim of building on the FTA in 2015 Free Trade Area ASEAN - India (AIFTA), Free Trade Area ASEAN - Australia and New Zealand (AANZFTA) also turn established in 2009 with the goal of eliminating all tariffs by 2020 However, the participatory process of the FTA of our country has only a qualitative change when Vietnam becomes a member of the World Trade Organization (WTO) We participate in a fair way with the main aim of all negotiations is a matter of interest in trade relations and investment With the FTA partners, Vietnam has established itself as a reliable partner The FTA is not only done within the framework of ASEAN cooperation, which we ourselves have chosen the right partner but can benefit the integration strategy of the country.In 2008, the first bilateral FTA Vietnam's agreement on comprehensive economic partnership with Japan, effected from October 2009 Currently, Vietnam is negotiating bilateral FTAs with Chile, to negotiate with formal membership of the Agreement on Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) The FTA ASEAN +3 (China, Japan, Korea), ASEAN +6 (plus India, Australia and New Zealand) and a bilateral FTA with the Russian Federation, European Union and South Korea are also reviewed seriously In all these FTA negotiations, the most important driving force of our country is always attached with the goal of promoting the exportation of domestic goods Perhaps, the interest in exporting is also concerns about improving the production capacity of the economy However, considerations of the export interests also be considered from two perspectives are short and long term In short term, concerns about export interests are the direct comparison of the relative competitiveness with other goods between countries, especially countries in the region such as Thailand, Indonesia, and Philippines with our country is very large Like any other countries in the region, Vietnam has participated partly in FTA because does not want to lose the export advantage is that the motivation to establish FTAs with other partners Currently, the FTA partners of ASEAN and Vietnam are the countries of East Asia This is an important export market of our country with a turnover almost USD 35 billion, equivalent to 48% of total exports In fact, the most direct angle, export opportunities for specific items of our country in the FTA, which Vietnam has also significantly involved, with Japan, 79% of our agricultural exports will be 0% tax incentives Average tariffs by FTA commitments dropped from 8.1% to 4%.The most profitable items as fresh fruits and vegetables, coffee, tea, meat and wood products Fishery products have an average tariff decreased from 5.4% to 1.3% As for the industrial products, 100% tariffs on industrial goods achieved 0% in 2010 The most profitable items are garments, footwear, chemicals, electricity and electronics With Australia and New Zealand market, although the market is protected by tariff rate is relatively low, approximately 14% of Vietnam's exports (mainly apparel, footwear and some metal products) being subject to tariffs from to 100% will be reduced significantly from 2013 97% of Vietnam's exports to Australia will have a tariff 0% in 2013 and Vietnam's exports to Australia will have a tariff 0% in 2020 Similarly, 44% of Vietnam's exports to New Zealand are subject to the tax rate from to 80% By 2013, 90% of exports from Vietnam to New Zealand will have 0% tariff protection and 100% of our exports to New Zealand with the 0% protection in 2020 With the Indian market, 72% of Vietnam's exports to India will be entitled to 0% from 2016 The commodities are enjoying the most is electronic, textile, chemicals and some machinery and equipment Particularly items such as coffee and tea tax reduction schedule will be lower than tax rates that Indian applies to other countries The Chinese market, Korea essentially has applied no import duties to goods exported from Vietnam In the long term the picture of export interests are often be seen through the factors that affect the goal of forming the competitiveness of the country in the future The basis identified export potential benefits of Vietnam's ability to restructure the country's exports to joining the FTA in the region So far, the establishment of FTAs with major economies and most dynamic in the region such as China, India, Korea, Japan and Australia has brought greater opportunities to Vietnamese enterprises From 2004 to 2010, bilateral turnover of Vietnam and other ASEAN and East Asian partners has increased from 32 billion to $ 82 billion, it is almost 270% Annual growth rate is 28% In particular, the proportion of the country's trade partners in ASEAN and East Asia region is 53% of the total trade turnover of Vietnam, if added three partners are Australia, New Zealand and India in the ASEAN +6 this figure is 56% Trade relations between Vietnam and other East Asian countries are growing at high speed It can be said to participate in FTA with ASEAN, China, India, Japan, Australia, New Zealand, our country has the opportunity to access and exploit giant market which accounted for more than 50% of the population and the GDP world, opening up export potential According to the researchers about the feasibility of the FTA in East Asia including ASEAN, China, Japan and South Korea, Free trade area in East Asia (EAFTA) is expected to be a the largest free trade area in the world of scale consumers and it will be 3st World GDP, and also will form a huge market with total consumer of alomots billion and closed to 3,000 billion dollars in GDP value With the dynamic and sensitivity of the economy in this region, East Asia FTA will influence to economic and trade interests of each country, including Vietnam According to this study, once completed the East Asian FTA, the total GDP of East Asian countries will increase to 1.2% and economic welfare to 104.6 billion USD Particularly for Vietnam, East Asia FTA is expected to bring 2.83% of GDP growth and benefits of commercial development would reach 3.029 billion USD This is a very significant number of commercial benefits of our country Unlike short-term export interests, direct, benefits in the long term export depends on the change in the structure of exports under the influence of trade flows and investment Currently, the export structure of our country is very monotonous, value added is relatively low 85% of export turnover of Vietnam is still a crude oil products, agriculture, forestry, fisheries, minerals and textiles These are items that are strong due to the advantage of resources and labor but low added value, economic benefits are not high, lack of sustainability The structure of trade with East Asian countries reflects the association industry is not high The direct contribution of the country's manufacturing of supply chain value to the region-wide is very limited Recently, a number of export items have higher levels increased such as electricity, electronics, plastics; wire began to appear but not significant proportion This situation will only improve until a new equilibrium is established in the long term and when or country participates deeper in regional industry integration, leading to an overall structural transformation of the economy towards Geographical proximity, economic and political relations political between our country and partners in East Asia are one of the important factors that determine the quality of economic development of our country Along with the expansion of the FTA within the frame work of ASEAN, the export interests of our country will be promoted more strongly by the bilateral FTA that was initiated or actively participate, such as the bilateral FTA between Vietnam – EU, bilateral FTA between Vietnam - Russia or Agreement on economic partnership through Pacific (TPP).The establishment of the FTA with the EU, the United States and Russia will complete the chain of free-trade area, which Vietnam joined the partnership in the world economy In particular, the United States is the largest export market of Vietnam with a turnover of nearly 12 billion USD; EU is the market's No exporter of our country with a turnover of 10 billion USD These two markets have the best export growth, about 400% within years from 2003 to 2010 This is also a market that Vietnam maintains a stable state export surplus For Russia, though trade is not high as expected, but Russia has always been a traditional export market and a lot of potential The establishment of FTAs with these markets will be a big boost for Vietnam's trade The initiation of the business is the determining factor to the success of economic integration policies of the country In recent years, it is worth noting that the businesses of Vietnam have expressed interest, make better use of the advantages that FTA offers In 2010, nearly 12% of Vietnam's exports to ASEAN have tax incentives, up from 6% in 2005 21.7% of our exports are tax incentives of China, up from 6.3% in 2007 In particular, up to 79% of Vietnam's exports enjoy preferential tax from Korea.With Japan, although we just carrying on the new FTA, 28% of our export commodities already enjoyed preferential tax of this country But trade is also diverted a new challenge for the FTA process The fact that some ASEAN countries to participate in many FTAs with other countries outside the region It also creates the risk of adverse trade diverted to Vietnam when the trade was distributed by the FTA strongly outward Not only that, the FTA also is built with other forms of cooperation For example, Japan negotiated an FTA with ASEAN, and then negotiates FTA with Singapore, Philippines, and Thailand 3.6.2 Micro Scale Obviously, the benefits of the FTA not only depend on the role of the state-oriented, but the more important is the participation of business community in Vietnam When the Vietnam get involved in the process of joining the economic organization, conducted a signing of agreements on expanding the market for enterprises, but it is also the challenge of Vietnamese enterprises in the next competition Join the FTA negotiations; the Government will determine the trade rules, including rules on tariffs and other incentives These problems particularly interested in business In fact, the implementation of the FTA is a business and they are also the beneficiaries However, an FTA is signed is synonymous with the market opening Businesses will lose their home market if they cannot improve their competitiveness The FTA agreement was aimed at the elimination of barriers to trade and investment Thus, competition for business is the most important challenges that the trade agreements created If strong enough, the pressure will lead to economic restructuring consistent with the new environment These challenges incurred, that are meaningful to administrators because their mission is to look before the movement, thereby creating an environment that makes restructuring more smooth, with low cost The enterprises has been gradually more initiative in taking advantage of tax incentives in the FTA.The rate of preferential commodity is quite high compared to our partners in the region and tend to increase over the year In 2009, approximately 25% of exports from Vietnam to take advantage of tax incentives in the FTA Specifically, almost 12% of exports to ASEAN have enjoyed tax incentives, increased sharply compared with 6% of 2005 For China, this ratio is 22% Specifically, almost 80% of Vietnam's exports to Korea have benefited from tax incentives With Japan, whether new deployment FTA but 28% of our exports already enjoy preferential tariff when entering the local market It can be seen, take advantage of preferential rates are lower in partnership with the export structure similar to Vietnam (as ASEAN, China) and higher in the partnership structure in addition to Vietnamese exports South (including South Korea, Japan) International market opportunities will become increasingly open for business with Vietnam the process of international economic integration Practices years innovation has proved this clearly In the period 1996 - 2005, export turnover of Vietnam has grown strongly, averaging 17.5 / year, export value has increased almost fivetimes from $ 7.2 billion (1996) to 32.2 billion USD (2005), making Vietnam to be the country with the commercial development in the world average And, since the Vietnam Trade Agreement - the United States effective (January 12-2001), the export turnover of Vietnam to the United States has increased more than times, from 1.053 billion in 2001, up , billion USD in 2005 Enterprises have access to cheaper imported inputs that will facilitate reduced costs and increased competitiveness In terms of State for the protection of an industry will lead to price of goods of that sector is higher than the market and thus the related sectors, particularly those sectors of industry use products covered household production as raw materials will bear the major cost inputs But thanks to the abolition of barriers to flows of goods, services, capital, prices of inputs of production processes, business in the competitive conditions will tend to decrease due to / or reduce the cost of imports Therefore trade liberalization contributes to reduce costs and increase competitiveness of goods and services of enterprises Free trade also enables enterprises to reduce transaction costs and trading by the general principles is unified However, Vietnam's enterprises are mostly small and medium businesses, not large scale of production, lack of capital, technology has not improved so low quality goods, but prices are high.In addition to many enterprises to become familiar with "arms of protection" to the passive state with market economy Therefore improving competitiveness is the biggest challenge for Vietnamese enterprises The Vietnamese enterprises need to understand and creatively apply new scientific achievements into production and business processes: innovative line of technology will help enterprises reduce the input costs from which lowering the cost of product but with high quality The progress of science and technology also helps businesses reduce the number of employees directly engaged in production, leading to reduced labor and higher wages for workers Businesses should regularly follow market survey of market demand; determine the supply and demand to production plan By now there are still enterprises continuing to produce products with low added value, while market demand has been shifted To capture the trend of the market, enterprises can organize drives marketing and advertising products to consumers Participate in international fairs in the region and the world to survey the needs of consumers, as well as promote and looking for investment partners or agents The strategy of the enterprise should have the long sight to catch up with the changing market trends of the world and regions Businesses must also respect opinions on financial management The financial institutions should be strengthened and having modern technology strong enough to compete with financial services to foreign enterprises and domestic investors are not looking for foreign business Another important issue is that enterprises need to improve skills of workers Enterprises must create conditions for workers to access modern technology, organize professional training classes Take advantage of opportunities of technology transfer of the member countries in regional economic union to exchange experts, organizing short courses for workers with direct teaching of foreign profession or send key staff to foreign countries to study Currently in the integration trend of continuous development, technology informatio also contribute significant part in the process In the trend of global integration, electronic contract signing growing gradually A typical example can be seen more and more difficult markets such as Korea, Japan, and Hongkong want to purchase Vietnam rice But to penetrate this market, enterprises must know the electronic procurement, trading floor so the Vietnamese enterprises need to grasp the skills of electronic procurement This is so new to Vietnamese enterprises because to date Vietnamese enterprises only bid directly, never participating in electronic procurement and electronic bidding hence they not know how Thus an opportunity for Vietnamese rice exporters to these countries has been reduced Enterprises need to Vietnam active in: find out the commitments of tariffs, rules of origin, the regulations on hygiene, quarantine and other technical regulations, market research, improving quality, value and responsibility for prestige products From the management agencies side, should set a goal to support enterprises to participate more deeply into the value chain of the region and global Conclusion: In summary, openness, integration and globalization is an objective trend, the inevitable rule in the development of world economy International economic integration is profoundly affected to the economy of all countries International economic integration brought tremendous growth opportunities to Vietnamese enterprises, but also put the enterprises at challenges and difficulties which are not trivial Want a strong economy Vietnam need to have strong enterprises, more competitive product with the world's goods It requires Vietnamese enterprises to realize a full and deep to take the appropriate solutions in order to take advantage of opportunities, overcome challenges, turning challenges into opportunities for growth, renewal of technology, improve competitiveness to stand in the process of international economic integration Strictly comply with Politburo's Resolution on the international economic integration to boost industrialization, modernization-oriented socialism  ... market, enterprises must know the electronic procurement, trading floor so the Vietnamese enterprises need to grasp the skills of electronic procurement This is so new to Vietnamese enterprises... Vietnam to be the country with the commercial development in the world average And, since the Vietnam Trade Agreement - the United States effective (January 12-2001), the export turnover of Vietnam... increase competitiveness of goods and services of enterprises Free trade also enables enterprises to reduce transaction costs and trading by the general principles is unified However, Vietnam's enterprises
