“…As a result of Vietnam's high population growth and healthy population structure, the country has made significant progress in economics, and many researchers have compared Vietnam with China in terms of the development of labor‐intensive industries (Vo & Ha, 2021). There has been high competition between Vietnam and other countries for labor‐intensive industries (Dao, 2022). Deshmukh (2021) and Nordhaug (2020) found Vietnam to be an effective competitor in the garment industry, where China dominated the market.…”

China has been losing international competitiveness in labor‐intensive industries due to various factors, including the trade war with the United States and globalization. Vietnam, however, has rapidly expanded its labor‐intensive exports. The paper proposes to explore the future of labor‐intensive industries in Vietnam due to the U.S.‐China trade war. The paper examines export performance data from United Nation Comtrade for 10 specific labor‐intensive industries that serve the U.S. market between 2000 and 2020 to assess the possibility of Vietnam overtaking China's position as the world's largest manufacturer. Using situation analysis, the paper compares the competitive advantage of Vietnam in labor‐intensive industries due to the U.S.‐China trade war. The paper found that China's competitiveness was negatively impacted for the final two periods, while Vietnam's competitive advantage increased.

This research aims to check whether the rate of production growth in the MSME sectors open to foreign direct investment (FDI) was lower than in the closed MSME sectors before the policy in 2016 and whether the growth rate of the open MSME sectors’ production lower than the closed MSME sectors after the policy in 2016. The study covers a period of 9 years from 2011 to 2020 based on the data from Indonesian Statistics Bureau. Data used was industrial sectors’ performance, classified into closed and open for FDI sectors. The classification is defined based on Presidential Regulation No. 44 of 2016. In total there are 13 closed and 10 open sectors. We analyse the data using t-test analysis between closed and open FDI industrial sectors. The results of the study found that the performance of open MSMEs was significantly lower than the performance of closed MSMEs, both before and after the liberalization. Therefore, the government must relax the requirements given to investors to invest in open MSMEs.
