Professor Tran also offered his recommendations for practical improvement which may be applicable to thecurrent Vietnamese educational reform. He proposed that Vietnam should utilize and enhance its internal strengths inmanpower, culture, geography, and other resources to win the leading position in certain aspects instead of always chasing after popular trends/fadsfor which we have little or no competitive advantage.
