In its financial report for the second quarter, Apple announced a record revenue of $83 billion, up 2% year-on-year, despite the volatile market situation. "We set June quarter records in the Americas, in Europe and in the rest of Asia Pacific region. We also saw June quarter revenue records in both developed and emerging markets with very strong double-digit growth in Brazil, Indonesia and Vietnam and a near doubling of revenue in India," Cook said during the company’s earnings call late July. He said the company continues to "execute across some significant geographies with low penetration of iPhones between Indonesia, Vietnam and India where we did quite well." The company's strategy is to use its smartphone model to expand its presence, with promotion of other products to follow. "iPhone tends to be the engine for those markets, particularly at the beginning of creating the market there for Apple products." Apple did not specify the growth rate for each region. However, … [Read more...] about Vietnam a market with highest potential: Apple CEO

As a social contributor in the United States, Mother Sam was twice granted the presidential lifetime achievement award for her social devotion. Ai Hong Sam, a Vietnamese-American doctor, has fostered hundreds of children for a simple reason that is “allowing these orphans to call me 'mom' as they have long desired.” At that time, the Vinh Son orphanage in Thong Nhat Ward under Kon Tum Province, located in the Central Highlands region of Vietnam, was struggling to survive as it was home to hundreds of orphans, who were in desperate need of nurturing. Once in a while, charitable groups or individuals paid them a visit and were able to assist in extremely difficult times. One day, a woman from distant America found out, gradually got to know them, and voluntarily took on the burden. Every single thing is confided to Mother Sam Sam and the nuns in the orphanage are sharing the tasks with one another. While the nuns are in charge of looking after the children, she travels … [Read more...] about Mother Sam’s ‘superhuman strength’ supports 300 children in Vietnam

In June Linh Chi of Hanoi booked a ticket to Da Nang for traveling this week for VND4.2 million ($180). She recently booked a ticket on the same route for a friend who will accompany her, and the fare had fallen by nearly 20 percent to VND3.5 million. On the Vietnam Airlines website, the fares from Hanoi and HCMC to Da Nang, one of the busiest tourist hotspots this summer, have declined by 50-60 percent since late June. On Vietjet Air and Bamboo Airways, the fares are VND1.6-2.5 million. A month ago a return trip from Hanoi to Phu Quoc cost VND7 million, but has now fallen by nearly half. Airfares on the Hanoi-HCMC route, one of the world's busiest, were up to VND6 million last month but are now no more than VND5 million.

As children prepare to return to school after nearly three months and families wrap up their … [Read more...] about Travel becomes cheaper as peak summer tourism season ends

Traditional taxis need to introduce new innovations to regain their popularity among locals. (Photo courtesy of nld.com.vn) HCM City (VNS/VNA) - In recent years, when app-based ride-hailing services appeared and grew stronger in Vietnam, many people gradually turned away from traditional taxis. However, with the COVID-19 pandemic and the recent increase in the price of gasoline, many people have re-opted for traditional taxis because it is increasingly difficult to book ride-share cars , and the fares have risen sharply. It took less than 100,000 VND for a traditional taxi to travel from Tan Binh district to District 1 during rush hour while that of ride-hailing cars was 200,000 VND, Binh, a resident of Tan Binh district, told Nguoi Lao Dong (Labourer) newspaper. It is worth mentioning that Binh booked his trip via multiple ride-hailing apps and was still not able to call for any taxis. Le Minh Hieu, who is living in Binh Thanh district, shared a similar concern and has … [Read more...] about Traditional taxis make a comeback

The Department of Transport of the north-central Vietnamese province of Nghe An has ordered a revamp of local public bus routes after a limbless man spent two hours repeatedly failing to flag down a bus, apparently because drivers were simply ignoring him. A viral video posted online on Thursday showed Huynh Thanh Duc, 51, a resident of Ha Tinh Province, telling a local in Hoa Thanh Commune, Yen Thanh District, Nghe An Province that he stood at a bus stop waiting for a bus from 7:00 am to 9:00 am on Wednesday. Duc, who is quadruple amputee, was dropped off at the bus stop by his child at around 7:00 am that day to catch bus No. 5 from Yen Thanh to Vinh City, the capital of Nghe An. Three No. 5 buses passed while Duc and his child waited, but none stopped. Duc’s child wound up having to leave to attend to an urgent matter, and shortly after a fourth No. 5 bus drove by without stopping for Duc. A local named D., who filmed the viral video, helped Duc wave a bus down and help … [Read more...] about Vietnamese province revamps public bus service after limbless man ignored by drivers

The first Saturday in August, when Europe's July holidaymakers head homewards and its August sunseekers head south, is the busiest day of the year at the continent's busiest filling station. And even surging global fuel prices did not deter thousands of motorists and truckers from filling their tanks at Shell's Berchem station in southern Luxembourg, on the busy A3 motorway. The Grand Duchy may be small, but it is a crossroads between Belgium, Germany and the Netherlands and the route south to the holiday beaches of France, Italy and Spain. And -- crucially in a summer of soaring prices -- it has famously cheap fuel, making it a prime spot for long-distance truckers and cost-conscious travelling families alike. Even outside of the holiday rush, French and German motorists and cross-border workers often fill up in Luxembourg. When a family's final destination is on the Med and a full tank of fuel costs more than 100 euros (dollars), the savings add up. On Saturday, two … [Read more...] about Holiday rush drives demand at Europe’s busiest fuel station

As Vietnam steps into the post-pandemic era, experiences and learnings from the pandemic serve as a reminder of the importance of digital transformation and its crucial technology component. Eunjung Han, consultant at Rouse Legal Vietnam and vice chair of the Digital Sector Committee of the European Chamber of Commerce in Vietnam Despite COVID-19’s negative economic and social impact, Vietnam remains an attractive destination to European investors. According to the European Chamber of Commerce (EuroCham) 2021 White Book, Vietnam’s stable macro-economic climate, with inflation in the single digits, continues to increase investor confidence in the country’s trade and investment environment. Only adding to that, the EU-Vietnam Free Trade Agreement (EVFTA) is paving the way for continued foreign direct investment (FDI) from the EU and is viewed as a means for shared recovery and economic rebound. As the first comprehensive FTA between the EU and a developing country in … [Read more...] about EVFTA underpinning growth in Vietnamese tech market
