1. Macroeconomic analysis during 2005-2011

Despite the natural catastrophes that we underwent in the period of 2005-2007, Vietnam's economy attained significant achievements. However, while the global crisis starting from the US real estate sector has cracked the world of developed countries since 2008, we also received two shocking blow, which effects have remain ever since.

2005-2007: This period was noted for several disasters that stroke down the country: droughts in the first half of the years 2005 and 2006, tropical storms, tornados, and especially the bird flu and 'food and mouth disease' that did not only affect agriculture, but also confectionery and other industrial activities. However, the statistical data of this period showed an outstanding advance in the economy. The GDP growth rate of 2005 and 2007 was 8.44 and 8.46 respectively, which are the 2 highest among 11 years from 2000 to 2011. The registered FDI flow into Vietnam also increased dramatically, from 6,839.8million USD in 2005 to 21,347.8 million in 2007. The CPI rate was at good numbers, around 7% to 8%.
