The reality of craft village development at the key economic zone of Southern Vietnam in the present period

Abstract

Nowadays, craft villages in key economic zones in the South of Vietnam have played a big role in the socio-economic development of many local areas in the region. Many production types of craft villages offer work for employees. In addition, craft villages produce goods exported to the world. Although there are potentials for development and great opportunities for market expansion, craft villages in key economic zones in the South still suffer from many weak points; for example, unstable trading conditions, lack of capital, etc. This paper focuses on surveying and analyzing the real development situations in production types and trading situations in key economic zones in the South of Vietnam.
