The weakness of state policy, the intrinsic activity of the now poor and lack of qualified human resources is a major barrier to the development of the gas industry in Vietnam. Need to have uniform policies, particularly the development of human resources for the sector from the danger of premature death.

This is the opinion of Mr. Dao Phan Long - Vice Chairman and Secretary General Mechanical Enterprise Associations in Vietnam "Support Forums Industry 7th Vietnam" was held in Hanoi on the afternoon of May 18 - 7.
According to Long, mechanical industry Vietnam can not meet the actual needs of the market, slow growth and achieve localization as expected. The number of companies involved in the global production chain, the global manufacturer orders only count on the fingers while the product is produced only on preparations for the next production process and technology not high.
Localization rate of Vietnam is now very low compared to other countries in the region, only 28%, while China is 61%, countries like Thailand, India, Malaysia will achieve around 40%.
"The mechanics Vietnam is under intense pressure from foreign firms, because no country for mechanical engineering to the development of our country and just want to turn our country into a consumer market. No ODA projects for mechanical engineering because of concerns about the relationship between development and mechanical weapons "- Mr. Long said.
Need support mechanisms
According to the Association of Mechanical Industry of Vietnam, the government still does not have adequate investment policy. There have been many policy for mechanics but have not yet come into practice. Besides, after the incident occurred Vinashin, confidence in the engineering industry has more or less shaken. State should enact long-term policies and create stable orders, create competitiveness, market development, market protection, construction of policies trained human resources, science investment technology ....
Vietnam Markets mechanics, cash only imported production materials for the first 6 months was over 10 billion U.S. dollars, while exports mainly by FDI enterprises, very few of the local businesses.
"We have a very large market, but due to our engineering organization producing, directing weak to hold the market. The only company in the world on a more specific and certain parts. For example, automobile companies like Toyota only produces machinery, design and testing are the majority of the details and accessories are imported from other manufacturers, while Vietnam only now almost as mechanical closed. No one makes both mechanical Vietnam-style "- Mr. Long pressing
Highlight Vietnam only mechanical construction and manufacturing handicraft such as Son La plant, 500 kV, sea rig ... and so far only some mechanical business investment, participation global production chain, other countries are ordered.
In the harsh environment of competition with other countries in the region, researchers now need to choose products, both for domestic consumption both exports and expanding business links between each other, between firms with union Enterprise social engineering Vietnam, application acceleration and cultural cooperation, specialization.
Mr Long stressed only when the gas industry, the new development is likely to attract human resources. Moreover, the labor force in the mechanical engineering industry without the close cooperation, weak links, not highly qualified.
In this regard, Tran Anh Vuong, chairman of the Vietnam Young Business Association said that the workforce in the industry in general have the ability to work in groups of low, besides the technical qualifications and generally higher "hold their own secrets", did not share with others.
Mr. Wang also offer solutions to improve management skills and human resource development for small businesses is to promote the work environment, especially mode and focus on foreign workers
