HCMC: Under Vietnam's new Socio-Economic Development Strategy, the country is now enjoying tremendous development and is on the way to becoming a modern industrialised country by 2020. One of its key priorities is to develop world-class infrastructure.  According to Business Monitor International (BMI), infrastructure will account for an average of 48 percent of the total construction industry from 2009 to 2014. This is well above the global average of 36.4 per cent and shows that investment in Vietnam's infrastructure will continue to lead the construction sector.
