But why is this happening? The reason lies in the rising wealth of the super-rich living in the country. They are defined as people with investment assets of at least $30 million, excluding personal property and real estate, such as main residence and a steady increase of 320% in their number between 2000 and 2016, according to Wealth Report of Knight Frank.

At the same time, Vietnam quickly became attractive to foreign investors. Vietnam’s seaside city of Da Nang in 2018 for the first time won a place on the list of “Live and Invest Overseas” with the 10 best places to live.
