Vietnam chosen to be the site of next Trump-Kim summit
None
Vietnam, the location of President Donald Trump's next meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, has come a long way since the US abandoned its war against communist North Vietnam in the 1970s.
United into a youthful nation that now numbers 95 million, beginning in the mid-1980s the country embraced global trade to become a production base for South Korea's Samsung and many other manufacturing giants. The "Doi Moi" reforms adopted by its communist rulers, modeled largely on China's transformation into the world's factory floor, could provide a model for North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.
