One of the big human resources crisis Vietnam is facing these days and affecting many sectors is the lack of manpower within the country.
Many locations along are in need of professionals, managers, decision-makers and also fresh graduates, which are now finding a different labor market and recruitment process.
In an article published by TTN, over 100.000 Vietnamese are sent abroad to study at a cost of over USD 1,4 billion but many of them refuse to return and bring value back to Vietnam.
The solutions were proposed to the different ministries in Vietnam, including a linkage between Ministry of Education, Ministry of Labor-Invalids-Social Affairs and Ministry of Culture-Sports-Tourism on promoting a mid-long term better education system, an upgrade of old school materials which represent and outdated put on scene among several other ignored points.

Vietnam spends US$1.4 billion annually sending 100,000 students abroad to study but most of them refuse to return home to work, said Peter Hong, vice-chairman of the Business Association of Overseas Vietnamese.
At a meeting held late last week by the Board for Southern Affairs of the Vietnam Fatherland Front Central Committee to collect opinions and proposals of residents in the south, Hong said that the Politburo issued Conclusion 12 reviewing significant contributions of overseas Vietnamese.
Remittances to Vietnam amounted to some $18 billion last year, including $6.1 billion sent to Ho Chi Minh City, Hong said, citing statistics in the Politburo’s conclusion.
Overseas Vietnamese have poured VND45 trillion ($1.92 billion) into over 4,300 companies in Vietnam, including nearly VND23 trillion ($982.7 million) invested in around 1,300 firms in Ho Chi Minh City.
However, it is more important to attract Vietnamese people studying abroad back home and make use of their expertise, Hong said.
At present, some 500,000 Vietnamese intellectuals are well educated in other countries.
Many of them want to return to Vietnam to work but have encountered multiple obstacles.
Taking his wife as an example, he said, “My wife is heading a ward of a large hospital abroad. Her current salary is some $187,000 per year. She wants to come back to Vietnam to work but she is offered only VND14 million [$599[ a month.”
Hong also mentioned the 'Road to Olympia Peak' program, the biggest quiz show on TV for high school students in Vietnam.
Many people have joked that the program should be named 'Road to Australia' as most of the winners choose to stay there after completing their studies, funded by the grand prizes they won in the show.
He also mentioned Project 165 for the training of managers abroad using the state budget, saying that up to 67 percent of 3,000 PhD holders are living abroad, 27 percent are working for state agencies, and the remainder have quit their jobs.
“I am heart-broken as our children do not return home after studying overseas. I am sad when thinking of our next generations,” Hong said.
Nguyen Huu Dung, vice-chairman of the Vietnam Fatherland Front Central Committee, said he would acknowledge, select, summarize, and report the opinions of members of the Vietnam Fatherland Front Central Committee to the Party, State, and lawmaking National Assembly.

Jan Freitag With a mild recession on the horizon for 2023, hotel owners and operators are looking forward to a year when the ongoing recovery intersects with an economic slowdown. Here are five questions that will be on investors’ and managers’ minds as the hotel industry embarks on the new year. 1. Can Average Daily Rate Growth Continue or Will the Recession Stop Growth? Average Daily Rate, or ADR, in October was 15% higher than 2021 and 16.8% higher than in 2019. But can this growth continue? The STR forecast answers this question with a resounding yes. The current iteration calls for 1.7% ADR growth in 2023. Looking back over the past 24 months, the upside was strong pricing power. It became obvious quickly that room rate discounts did not induce demand so operators who stuck to their rates are now in a much better position to drive ADR. How much could a recession matter?
