The US wants Vietnam to be its new tech best friend

The article discusses the US's growing interest in Vietnam as a potential partner in the technology supply chain, aiming to reduce its dependence on China. President Joe Biden recently visited Vietnam with leaders from top US technology companies to explore opportunities for collaboration. While Vietnam offers a stable economy and location advantages, experts caution that it cannot replace China's manufacturing scale and skills in the tech industry. Vietnam's relatively small and low-skilled semiconductor workforce and limited role in global semiconductor trade pose challenges to becoming a major player in the supply chain. Investments from US companies have been made, but complete decoupling from China seems unlikely.
