<br/><br/> "Last year [2004], Americans bought 50 million pairs of shoes from Vietnam, a country that 30 years ago was the nation's mortal enemy. Some people here call it communist capitalism. Others describe it as capitalist communism. And even others call it a socialist market economy. Whatever its name, it is the engine that has rescued this country from a failing economic system mired in unproductive state-run businesses and opened its doors to burgeoning trade that has dramatically improved the lives of its people." (ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH) The author examines the burgeoning Vietnamese economy, noting that "thirty years after the fall of Saigon, Americans are back--this time, as investors instead of combatants."
