ドイモイ
Vietnam is one of the largest rice exporter since the late 1980s and early 1990s. Previous to the Doi Moi reforms initiated in 1986, the country was dependent on net imports of rice. After having changed the policies and opened the market, Vietnam was finally able to earn foreign exchange within these years and hence gain financial power. The domestic economy grew rapidly. Nowadays, irrigated agriculture is by far the largest water user and although the country is developing very fast, agriculture which is predicted to grow moderately remains to be an important employer in Vietnam.
