7 I. Vietnam Textile Industry in overview 5. Comment Textile and apparel exports account for 80-85% of total industry revenue. Export growth is mainly driven by yarn and garment growth. The growth of the garment sector (account for 86%) is based on cheap labor force The growth of the spinning industry is mainly based on competitive prices and the acceptance of China, Turkey and some ASEAN countries. Foreign direct investment (FDI) is the driving force behind this growth (account for 70%). Rapid growth in the spinning and sewing segment has created an imbalance of the supply chain with bottlenecks in the fabric segment (weaving, knitting, dyeing and finishing) that makes the sector heavily depends on imported fabric (6.5 billion meters per year, equivalent to 75% of demand) and is vulnerable. 7

8 II. The impact of TPP on the industry 1. The impact of TPP With the yarn forward formula in exchange for the duty elimination from 17.5% to 0% at the US market (accounting for 50% total export), TPP is the main driving force for domestic fabric production. The summarizing FDI into Vietnam below with TPP expectation proved that: From 2000 to 31 December 2013: 8.2 billion USD From January 2014 to 30 June 2016: 8.3 billion USD 1/ /12/2013 1/ /6/2016 Spinning Fabric production Garment Total

12 III. The development directions in the context without TPP 1. Goals Try to maintain the annual growing rate of 6 8% during the period of In order for Vietnam's textile and garment to develop in a stable and sustainable manner, the task of the industry is to promote domestic fabric production, meeting the needs of the industry. If the fabric produced domestically meets the demand, Vietnam's textile and garment industry will not only increase its share in the value of exports and domestic consumption, contribute to the growth of GDP but also create more jobs, build a firm foundation for the development of the industry in a stable and sustainable manner that is precondition for the development of the fashion industry. The solution to this objective is to increase the attractiveness of foreign investment combined with the promotion and support of domestic firms involved in fabric production. 12

15 III. The development directions in the context without TPP 4. Investment Opportunities Item Unit Quantity Materials (Cotton, VSF, PSF, filament fiber) MT 2.7 million Spinning Spindles 10.7 million Fabrics m billion In which, FDI in fabric production is of high appreciation and support by the Government of Vietnam 15

16 III. The development directions in the context without TPP 5. Solutions for FDI attracting To set up large-scale industrial zones specializing in fabrics production in suitable locations in Vietnam with complete infrastructure system. The government has preferential policies and supportive solutions for each investor. Especially create conditions for domestic enterprises to develop, in which promotes the launching of the model of "Vietnam Textile Village".
