Hanoi Trucking and the Impact of Vietnam’s Ethnic Policies

“If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.” This proverb rings true not only in daily life but also serves as a guiding principle for the trucking industry in Hanoi and Vietnam as a whole. Ethnic policies, acting as a unifying thread, have fostered solidarity and propelled Vietnam’s economic engine forward.

But what exactly are these ethnic policies? And how do they impact Hanoi’s vibrant trucking market? Let’s explore these questions with “HANOI TRUCKS.”

Ethnic Policies in Vietnam: Definition and Key Role

According to Professor Nguyen Van A, in his book on popular politics, ethnic policy is defined as a set of guidelines and measures implemented by the state to leverage the collective strength of all ethnic groups. The goal is to build national unity and contribute to the construction and defense of the country. Simply put, ethnic policy acts like the skillful hand of a truck driver, coordinating each finger (representing the various ethnic groups) to ensure the vehicle navigates smoothly on any road.

The Importance of Ethnic Policies in the Trucking Sector

Hanoi’s trucking market is a fertile ground for businesses of all sizes and ethnic backgrounds. Ethnic policies, promoting equality and unity, have created a healthy business environment that fuels the industry’s overall growth:

• Boosting Production: Policies supporting businesses in remote areas and those owned by ethnic minorities provide access to capital and technology. This enhances competitiveness and leads to the production of high-quality trucks that meet diverse market demands.
• Expanding the Market: Thanks to policies encouraging investment and developing transportation infrastructure, the trucking market has expanded to mountainous regions. This facilitates goods transportation and stimulates economic flow.
• Strengthening Cooperation: Ethnic policies provide a solid legal framework for collaboration between businesses and individuals from different ethnic groups. This fosters efficient supply chains and distribution networks, benefiting all stakeholders.

Ethnic Policies: Steering the Trucking Industry Through Challenges

Besides opportunities, the trucking market faces challenges like fierce competition, fluctuating fuel prices, and policy changes. Once again, ethnic policies act as a compass, guiding the industry through these obstacles:

• Improving Human Resources: Vocational training and employment support for ethnic minority workers provide access to modern technology and enhance their skills. This helps them meet the increasing demands of the trucking industry’s labor market.
• Addressing Capital Challenges: Preferential credit policies and low-interest loans provide trucking companies, especially SMEs, with resources for investment and expansion.
• Supporting Technological Advancement: Policies encouraging technology transfer and the application of advanced science and technology in truck manufacturing enhance productivity, improve product quality, and reduce environmental pollution.

A Success Story: The Green Transport Cooperative

The story of the Green Transport Cooperative in Ba Vi district, Hanoi, exemplifies the power of ethnic policies. Initially, this cooperative, founded by Muong ethnic farmers, had only a few old trucks. Thanks to government support, they accessed preferential loans, purchased new, modern trucks, and received training in safe driving techniques and IT application in transport management.

From humble beginnings, Green Transport has become a leading transportation provider in Ba Vi district, improving the lives of its members and creating jobs for many local workers.

Conclusion

Ethnic policies, embodying the spirit of mutual support, have been and will continue to be a crucial launchpad for the sustainable development of the trucking industry in Hanoi and Vietnam.
