Thirty years of Ä?ổi Má»›i (economic renovation) reforms have catapulted Vietnam from the ranks of the world’s poorest countries to one of its great development success stories. Critical ingredients have been visionary leaders, a sense of shared societal purpose, and a focus on the future. Starting in the late 1980s, these elements were successfully fused with the embrace of markets and the global economy. Economic growth since then has been rapid, stable, and inclusive, translating into strong welfare gains for the vast majority of the population. But three decades of success from reforms raises expectations for the future, as aptly captured in the Vietnamese constitution, which sets the goal of “a prosperous people and a strong, democratic, equitable, and civilized country.†? There is a firm aspiration that by 2035, Vietnam will be a modern and industrialized nation moving toward becoming a prosperous, creative, equitable, and democratic society. The Vietnam 2035 report, a joint undertaking of the Government of Vietnam and the World Bank Group, seeks to better comprehend the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead. It shows that the country’s aspirations and the supporting policy and institutional agenda stand on three pillars: balancing economic prosperity with environmental sustainability; promoting equity and social inclusion to develop a harmonious middle- class society; and enhancing the capacity and accountability of the state to establish a rule of law state and a democratic society. Vietnam 2035 further argues that the rapid growth needed to achieve the bold aspirations will be sustained only if it stands on faster productivity growth and reflects the costs of environmental degradation. Productivity growth, in turn, will benefit from measures to enhance the competitiveness of domestic enterprises, scale up the benefits of urban agglomeration, and build national technological and innovative capacity. Maintaining the record on equity and social inclusion will require lifting marginalized groups and delivering services to an aging and urbanizing middle-class society. And to fulfill the country’s aspirations, the institutions of governance will need to become modern, transparent, and fully rooted in the rule of law.

Bright Quang is a Vietnamese American poet, sculptor, writer, and prisoner of war. He came to the United States on November 22, 1993. He keeps up the respectful faiths and the just cause when he loves literature and art more than everything in his life, just because art is long-lasting, and power is short. Therefore, he falls in love with literature and avoids inhuman wars. In fact, the amoral wars not only deprived him of the rights to life of innocent humankind but also trampled their human dignity to mud. The Vietnam War murdered three million innocent people. One legal government by the Vietnamese people voted and sold off the Vietnam Armed Forces to Mainland China, which have three million astute troops, and sent to jail one million Southern officers. And three hundred thousand Southern officers were killed without being sentenced. His fatherland had been destroyed for the natural resources and environment by the toxic chemicals. Significantly, his literature is mightier than the amoral war as it has altered his super sublime to enslaved guy. As a result, he must keep up the modern civilization of the world when he stood up with his strong legs and his sublime energy. Even good, Bright Quang has been published eighteen books in the English language. He has exhibited many pieces of artwork seven times in the US after he graduated with a bachelor in art and two years of nonprofit management. This accordance with a superpower, modern, civilized, and progressive let him struggle for justice as a prisoner of war because wisdom must win the inhuman war. The better struggle for equality rather than make an enslaved artist by the discrimination and racism in the United States of America. Justice for Vietnam by Bright Quang. He struggles for justice as a prisoner of war. Just because the unjust laws are to be the self-evident truths of constitutional rights, the use of the greatest power deprives of the rights to the life of innocent humankind without having regrets. Significantly, the insensitivity of the superpower America not only robbed the other sacred foreign sovereignty the Republic of Vietnam but also had the lack of ethical consciences has trampled down the weakest people to satisfy their belligerent aggressions. Despite this, this powerful nation has not respected to express the right religions, but they have used figures of religion as a powerful expression of their sublime's powers. His wisdom struggles to conquer the delusive laws while a modern civilization expresses a play on a trick in the laws. Obviously, all the laws of a superpower America have been enacted for the Vietnam War, which is why a great power has not enforced any laws. When great power America not only abused the laws to bully a weak nation but also trampled the sovereignty and self-determination of a small country like the Republic of Vietnam down. In this event, the laws of great power America are expressed belligerent by inhumanity and amorality without having been enforced for justice cause. So the respectfulness of the laws is lost by the chicanery policy or so-called the sick of the US have against society. The super values of the law are clarified by the justice cause if the law has not been enforced thoroughly. We would call the unjust laws of the superpower America. Therefore, we the people should fight for justice as civilized citizens because the law is logically symbolized by the rule of law without a dictatorship. Furthermore, the law is equally expressed by the honor, human dignity, and constitution of the people's race and the nation and people not deprived. As a result, the law is the law. Finally, when a great power has enacted unjust law to become the constitutional rights, so superpower American does not represent a modern, civilized, and progressive society. Of course, superpower and modern civilization America not esteemed law oneself but also discriminated against human beings in all without having regretted, which is why the government of the United States of America proudly deprived the rights to life of mankind as the Southern Army Forces. Bright Quang has composed eighteen books while being a poet, sculptor, and painter. He struggles for justice as a prisoner of war of proxy war America in the Republic of Vietnam without having compensated for prisoner of war when the US Congress enacted HR 7885 Pub. L. 88-205, approved December 16, 1963, to occupy his country. And after then, the US sold the Republic of Vietnam for socialism by the core of interests. While he came to the US on November 23, 1993, graduated with a bachelor's degree in art, and earned nonprofit management in CSU Hayward, East Bay. As a result, the rest of his life fights for justice because justice is the same as oxygen for humans alive is peaceful as demagogy has against the justice of the unjust law of the US has become the constitutional rights. His wisdom must struggle for justice without having had fearless.
