近年来越南的改革开放政策使其经济逐步走出低谷,步入了较为稳定的发展轨道,人民生活有了明显的改善,习惯于拮据中生活的越南人现在终于可以松一口气了。1991——1993年,越南经济年均增长率达到7.2%,而通货膨服率则逐年下降,由1989年的76%下降到1992年的15%,去年则降到5%的水平。目前,首都河内和胡志明市等城市物价稳定,市场繁荣。越南的私营经济发展较快,河内除了有限的几家大国营商店外,几乎全都是私营商店。政府允许私人经营的范围很广泛,从日用百货、主副食品、家用电器,到金银宝石、象牙饰品、古玩书画以及野生动植物标本,应有尽有。换句话说,凡是家里有的,山里跑的,水里游的,地上爬的,都可以在私人商店和摊点上买到。城市商业区的街道两旁,店连 In recent years, Vietnam’s policy of reform and opening up has gradually brought its economy out of its slump and stepped into a relatively stable track of development.
