1
The World Bank has released its 2026 income classification based on countries 2025 gross national incomes or GNI per capita.
2
Yes, and under the World Bank's latest classification, Vietnam is one of the six economies worldwide to move into a higher income category.
3
While this is a well -deserved recognition of the country's remarkable economic achievements, it also marks the beginning of a new phase with both opportunities and challenges.
4
Vietnam's GNI per capita reached $4 ,970,
5
surpassing the $4 ,636 threshold required for upper middle income status under the World Bank's classification.
6
The World Bank attributed Vietnam's free classification to its strong economic growth and export performance.
7
During 2024 to 2025, exports expanded by more than 15%,
8
while GDP grew by 7 % in 2024 and 8 % in 2025.
9
So over the past years, Vietnam has consistently been one of the fastest growing economies in the region.
10
supported by resilient foreign investment, surging exports and growing domestic services.
11
This milestone can further help reinforce international confidence in Vietnam's long -term economic prospects
12
and the country's position as a destination for investment.
13
You really have transformed the country in the last 35 or 40 years.
14
The main reason is the government began having sensible market -oriented policies.
15
Prices were meaningful, the exchange rate was realistic, inflation dropped.
16
But this milestone is only the beginning of the new journey.
17
Vietnam's GNI per capita would need to nearly triple to reach high -income status
18
The World Bank defies as a GNI per capita of more than $14 ,375.
19
The middle -income trap has therefore become one of the toughest tests facing the economy.
20
Since 1990, only 27 economies have successfully transitioned from middle to high -income status.
21
This year, no economy was upgraded to the high -income category.
22
The encouraging news is that Vietnam already has many of the essential ingredients in place.
23
The country has a young and talented workforce, macroeconomic stability, a strategic location at the heart of Asia's growth region,
24
and perhaps most importantly, a strong ambition and demonstrated willingness to reform and adapt.
25
The next chapter will be defined not only by how fast Vietnam grows, but also by the quality of that growth.
26
17 years after entering the lower middle income category back in 2009, Vietnam has now reached upper middle income status.
27
But what does this achievement really mean?
28
And what will Vietnam need to do to realize its ambition of becoming a high income economy by 2045?
29
Joining us today is Head of Research Xuân Tây Cinh, Executive Director in Global Economics and Markets Research at United Overseas Bank.
30
And Mr. Xuân, Vietnam has officially joined the ranks of upper middle income economies,
31
development journey but as the country enters this new phase what do you see as the biggest challenges ahead?
32
Okay, so what happens is there are good things and there are not so good things, so you have to watch out.
33
The not so good thing or something that we need to watch out is also the cost.
34
of running businesses.
35
will be higher or have been rising And if the government is targeting for higher income, that means the cost of running businesses,
36
the cost of hiring workers will be rising in future as well.
37
Second thing that we need to watch is that while the income has been rising, it is only on an average basis.
38
So it is better that the government now watch closely what is the distribution, is it benefiting only certain people,
39
what they call it a K -shaped economy, a K -shaped.
40
Some are doing very well, some not doing so well, right?
41
It's a K -shaped.
42
So we want to prevent or reduce that kind of things from developing further.
43
We want to make sure that we catch them early, give them the help, the resources, the support, so that they are able to catch up with the rest of others.
44
To become a high income developed nation by 2045, what should Vietnam prioritize to avoid the middle income trap and achieve sustainable long -term growth?
45
Mm -hmm.
46
So for the middle income track, basically what it means is that as your costs go up, the country becomes less competitive.
47
What are the things that we can do?
48
One is through, for example, some of this automation.
49
robotics, AI that could help to increase Improve productivity.
50
Second thing is through innovation.
51
innovation, increase in R &D research and spending to innovate to develop more and different and more sophisticated products.
52
And also, another thing that the government can do is to increase resources,
53
to put in resources to upscale The workers? upskill companies.
54
Another thing is to diversify the exports as we move along.
55
So if he's too reliant, not diversified enough, then you are the risks are too concentrated.
56
So there is a need to broaden the type of products,
57
the type of sectors that Vietnam can develop.
58
So these are some of the things that the government can help, together of course with the private sector,
59
to overcome the possibility of getting into this middle income trap.

Thank you, Ms. Swan, for your insights.

この動画は誰に向いているのか?

英語のスピーキング練習やシャドーイング(shadow speech)に取り組む中級~上級者向けです。経済用語や論議の場で使われる論理的な表現を学び、リアルな会話のリズムを掴むことができます。YouTubeで英語学習をしている人で、ビジネス英語やニュース英語の実践的な使い方を身につけたい方に最適です。

覚えておきたい単語とイディオム

  • middle - income trap:中所得 trap。中所得国になった後、高所得国に進めない状態
  • macroeconomic stability:マクロ経済の安定。国家経済全体の安定性
  • K - shaped economy:K字型経済。一部の層は成長するが、他の層は停滞する経済状態
  • strategic location:戦略的な位置。地理的に重要な場所

これらの用語はニュースや経済討論で頻繁に登場するので、シャドーイングサイト(shadowing site)で繰り返し練習して発音と使い方を覚えましょう。

アクセントを正確にするコツ

この動画のスピーカーは論理的な会話を展開しているため、アクセントの置き方ポーズの取り方が重要です。例えば「the quality of that growth」では「quality」と「growth」にアクセントを置き、「that」は弱く発音します。また、長い文を区切るときのポーズは、意味のまとまりごとに入れることで、聞き手が理解しやすくなります。シャドーイングの際は、スピーカーのリズムに合わせて口の動きを真似ることで、自然な発音が身につきます。

英語スピーキング練習には、このようなリアルな会話を使って繰り返しシャドーイングすることが効果的です。経済用語の使い方や論理的な表現を身につけると同時に、発音とリズムも向上させることができます。

シャドーイングとは?英語上達に効果的な理由

シャドーイング(Shadowing)は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的:ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影(shadow)」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
