seesip Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 I'm considering opening a small office in Vietnam, in the software industry. Would appreciate any thoughts on Hanoi vs. HCMC, and also any referrals for law firms? Many thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tutsiwarrior Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 (edited) useta be that HCMC was the commercial hub and Hanoi was the gov't/admin center...not sure what the arrangement is now in terms of hi - tech activity... if you're going after VN government contracts you'll need to have a presence in Hanoi as that's where all the ministries are located, and if you do business with them they expect you to be available at a moment's notice... local VN gov't managers (PVN and Ministry of construction for example) are difficult to work with and if you annoy them it's very easy to get the boot...

Both flood when it rains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
