Vietnam

Numerous locales in Vietnam are preparing for what is expected to be an onslaught of foreign investment spurred by the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP). Officials in Ho Chi Minh City say they plan to open 6 new industrial zones totaling over 2,000 acres over the next few months. Likewise, the province of Long An is gearing up to handle up to 100 new investment proposals in textiles, weaving, and dyeing. Vietnam is expected to be one of the biggest benefactors of the TPP once it comes into effect. (Fibre2Fashion)
