Since the implementation of the Đổi Mới reforms in the late 1980s, Vietnam has experienced remarkable economic growth, transforming from a centrally planned economy to a more market-oriented system. However, this rapid growth has been accompanied by significant environmental challenges and rising inequality, particularly between urban and rural areas and among different socio-economic groups. The analysis explores the interplay between economic policies, social outcomes, and environmental impacts, highlighting how current growth strategies may compromise long-term sustainability. By examining case studies and empirical data, the paper identifies key areas where the growth model falls short, particularly in terms of inclusivity and ecological resilience. The findings underscore the need for a comprehensive re-evaluation of Vietnam's economic policies to ensure that future growth is equitable, environmentally sustainable, and aligned with the country’s socio-economic development goals. Ultimately, the paper calls for a more holistic approach that integrates social equity and environmental stewardship into Vietnam’s economic planning.
