Over the last decade, Vietnam's construction development has witnessed remarkable growth and transformation. The nation's strong economy, rapid urbanization, and rising foreign investments have led to a construction boom.
Yet, amidst the progress, challenges persist, such as insufficient infrastructure planning, financial constraints, and environmental issues. Moving ahead, the construction industry calls for innovation, collaboration, and investments in sustainable practices, skill enhancement, and enhanced regulations.
