I’m just back from a trip to Vietnam, a developing country that has seen economic growth of 8–9% for the past decade. During that time, the Vietnamese have diversified the economy, come to dominate several commodities and dramatically reduced poverty.
If you imagine what the country looked like at the end of the Vietnam War, the country’s progress is all the more remarkable.
