Vietnam currently has 100 million people, ranking 12th in the world. The population is the market. The Covid-19 pandemic helped to see clearly the importance of the domestic market, when businesses faced many difficulties in exporting. Therefore, it is necessary to consider the population as Vietnam's largest resource in order to develop the domestic market.
