Vietnam is seriously gearing up. It will be the next South Korea for sure.

Vietnam has twice the population of SK and still growing. Who knows it might even be larger than SK in 50 years time.

Vietnam results are very impressive given the fact that Vietnam can only properly educate her students in Hanoi and HCMC. So the student catchment pool is just a few millions.

Meanwhile the so call first world country Singapore results are horrible and getting more and more horrible every years.

These days, Singaporean government told peasant students to study hard is bad, children should enjoy childhood. At the same time, elites keep sending the their kids to enrichment class.

Congratulations Vietnam..

I though the rank would be : China-S. Korea-Japan-Vietnam. But I'm pretty sure the majority of US members are Asian.

I stayed in Vietnam for a long time. Trust me Vietnam catchment pool is really really small. Just 2-3 good schools in Hanoi and HCMC respectively. The rest of the schools cannot provide quality education.

In this sense， Vietnam elite schools are remarkable.

Wow I had no idea! In a way this is similar to what China went through in the late 80's. China was just recovering from the devastation caused by cultural revolution. The country wanted to restore the education system but we were dirty poor. So we designated a few "good schools" in each major city and put more resources in those. Every kid was given equal opportunities to take exams to get into those schools. That approach may seem though and unfair for some but it stimulated competitions amongst the entire generation.

I see Vietnam becoming even richer and more dynamic than Japan in my lifetime. The viets I’ve known are total hustlers and they do whatever it takes to succeed, it’s not surprising to see Vietnam really surging nowadays.

Don't be so harsh. Every country starts like this.
I have been to Vietnam. According to my observation, Vietnam is like China 10 to 20 years ago.
They are not far behind.

A lot of the new urban developments in Vietnam look like those in China. I feel like they are really speeding up their development now. Vietnamese are very bold and entrepreneurial people.
