Vietnamese economy slowing down http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/business/7482894.stm

Vietnam's economy slowed in the first half of the year as soaring inflation dampened consumer spending, and pushed up imported energy and food costs.

One of Asia's economic success stories in recent years, Vietnam enjoyed growth of 7.9% in 2007 but expansion slowed to 6.5% in the first half of 2008. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/business/7482894.stm
