Review and Analysis of the Pollution Impacts from Vietnamese Manufacturing Sectors

Between 1990 and 2005, Vietnam achieved an average annual growth rate of 7.5 percent in gross domestic product (GDP). The industrial sector was the most significant driver of this economic expansion with an annual growth of rate of more than 10 percent, at a time when agriculture, forestry, and fish...
