ベトナムの貿易収支、大幅黒字　米中貿易摩擦の恩恵　 Vietnam's balance of trade resulted in large surplus, benefit of US-US

米中貿易摩擦の恩恵を受け、ベトナムの貿易収支が大幅黒字を記録した。ベトナム税関総局(GDC)が発表した上半期の貿易収支は15億9000万ドルの黒字。政府予想は4300万ドルの赤字に反する結果となった。2019年上半期の輸出は1225億3000万ドル(前年同期比7.2%増) と、それぞれ米国向けで27.4%、韓国向けで16.8%増加。最大の輸出品目はサムスン電子(005930.KS)製を中心とするスマートフォンだった。

Thanks to the US-China trade friction, Vietnam's trade balance recorded a large surplus. The first half of the trade balance announced by the Vietnam Customs Administration (GDC) is a surplus of $ 1.59 billion. The government's forecast was against the $ 43 million deficit. Exports in the first half of 2019 were $ 122.53 billion (up 7.2% year-on-year), up 27.4% for the US and 16.8% for South Korea, respectively. The largest export item was a smartphone mainly made by Samsung Electronics Co. (005930.KS).
