What we See, Why we Worry, Why we Hope: Vietnam Going Forward explores key factors that affect Vietnam’s ability to move forward as a global economic player. While we see challenges, we see many reasons for hope, including a new generation of leaders.

"We – the Vietnamese entrepreneurs and businesspeople – who have the wish of making Vietnam a better place to work and live have both worries and hopes for our home country. The authors have done a nice job of presenting a new Vietnam, a multi-colored society and an emerging market economy, with a simple and fun-to-read style. The book delivers many important messages to western readers and I appreciate the efforts by the authors trying to bring Vietnam to the world, and the world to Vietnam."

-          Vu Quang Hoi, Chairman, The Bitexco Group

"A cogent and compelling look at contemporary Vietnam with all its  complexities and contradictions.Vuong Quan Hoang and Nancy Napier have given us a well-written and accessible guide to understanding the changes that Vietnam has gone through in the last decade. This book will be of great use to anyone wanting to  understand Vietnam today" 

-          Anya Schiffrin, Columbia University, School of International and Public Affairs 

"The book is very well written and the stories are inspirational.  The book has great value to be read by all Vietnamese, especially the younger generations."
