Vietnam External Trades surpass $405 billion in mid December

[Viet]

Vietnam learning from a country with HDI lower than sub-Saharan Africa and with hunger worse than North Korea and with illiteracy and filth incomparable to any developing country must be joke of the century.

No wonder, East Wind will voice any weird outlandish idea the moment his brain cells instruct him "Hey, this might be anti-China. Say it!"

Nonsense just because I say something like hey let’s do some in education and software with India then I am anti China. India has problems China not? Ok you have other problems.

Pls offer cooperation in software and education to Vietnam, or make a friendly environment so more Vietnamese will study in Chinese universities but I am afraid you won’t. So vietnamese students continue to flood Japanese institutions or America, Australia, New Zealand or elsewhere in the world instead of going to China. Pls don’t complain or saying we are anti China. Blame yourself.

and the opposite is true for hardware as well!
next you will say try implementing a GUI in hardware.....we were talking about abstract terms Hardware and Software, don't mix the two domains that are dependent on each other by your weird examples...
try any new kid to implement a simple Multiplexer in Xilinx or even make it on Proteus and then tell him to make a simple application of multiplexer in C# in an hour, you'll understand what we were talking about..a quick course of python and R will make a novice guy start working in data science but same is not true for hardware as it is not that simple.Hardware implementation and its programming is much effort taking than software, that's a fact you may agree with it or not ,its upto you! try to understand topic before quoting!

Hardware will continue to develop and exist for sure but it’s role will be eaten piece by piece by software. Cloud computing, network functions virtualization and other trends are all based on reducing hardware or building everything on a single hardware platform with all software running on it full filling every functions.

If you today visit a data center, let’s say a big cooperation, you don’t see endless server farms as seen 10 years ago. You may see several huge VMware machines that replace 100 servers previously. You may also know there are efforts under way also implementing network services and firewalling functionalities on these VMware.

It just does not make sense you would suggest to copy some country that is basically less developed than Vietnam.

From China's perspective, well, essentially, VCP has been mostly cooperative. I think this is what really matters.

Export/Import figures

2007: $100b
2011: $200b
2015: $300b
2017: more than 405b, with $3.17 billion surplus

Vietnam targets to add at least $100 billion in every one or two years.

Your population is fast approaching 100 million. Now just a few millions short of 100 million
HK's population is a bit more than 7 million.- just 7% of your country.

And our SAR territorial land area is even much smaller at around 1000 sq km https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geography_of_Hong_Kong#Area

Our 2017 nominal GDP projects at USD331 billion (Jan-Sept 2017=USD248.4 bln)(see link below**) which is 80% of Viet's USD 405bln above.

@Nilgiri I believe trade with India holds one of the biggest potentials.

just follow whatever the indians teach you and you'll be great.

It's just funny to see you arguing for Indian's IT power and the superiority of software over hardware which are ridiculous.

Both hardware and software are equally important.

Well, I assume that we talk about computer. So I can say that "Without hardware there is no software." And it's crazy to say that developing software is more important than hardware. Because once the countries who can develop and make hardware say that they will stop to export their CPU or GPU to your country, non of your software can work anymore.

 

[Viet]

That's impressive!

yes but still too little although we will close the year with $215b in exports and $211 in imports, so $426b combined. luckily we are on the move, next year once we close free trade deals with EU and TPP-11, we will surpass Thailand and Singapore quickly.

That's the thing no one is realizing here. I mean in my opinion even to think that Software is more difficult to implement or Hardware has less importance than software is foolishness. Software does make things a lot easier but its still running on some hardware and one must understand that your software application must be supported by underlying hardware first to run smoothly, and as compared to software very few countries have the ability to develop that robust hardware. I am working on a project related to IoT, our servers receive 1000s of requests at any second from different devices, even if we write 100% perfect code with not a single memory leak, with load balancing and everything its still all comes down to our server ability to handle those requests properly. Its crazy to think that software has more importance than hardware or the future is software and not hardware!

Yes, we have remember when China won Super Computer Competition and USA prohibited Intel to export their CPU to China. What happen if China's industry was not mature like today? They won't be able to build a new super computer anymore. Just replace China with India and Vietnam. Can they make their own CPU and CPU chips? And can their software do wonder to replace the CPU and it's chips? Well there are another manufactures in other countries. But what if everyone embargo the CPU and CPU chips to their countries? What happen to the computers in their countries?

Who can make CPU? Actually only developed countries with sophisticated technologies can. Vietnam is very far from that but we can make efforts drawing west and east companies to make CPUs in our country. Intel for instance produces most of haswell CPUs and system on chip SoC in Saigon.

Well, that's good for you then
