Kenneth Atkinson, founder of international audit agency Grant Thornton and Vice Chairman of the Viet Nam Tourism Advisory Board, said economists are warning that the new Covid-19 outbreak could overshadow the past optimistic forecasts about Viet Nam’s short-term economic growth.

However, he still believed that Viet Nam remains attractive to international companies.

Most foreigners living in Da Nang believed that the Vietnamese Government took swift and effective actions to combat Covid-19, both earlier this year and at present.

A foreign web designer said the Vietnamese Government is doing its best to prevent the new pandemic outbreak and current countermeasures are very important.
