Focusing on different features of industries, we divide the sample into three groups (light, petro-chemical, and heavy industries) and perform a regression analysis. From the three groups we find the effect only in the light-industry group which is positively significant. Other two groups show not significant results. These results suggest that low technology industries benefit rapidly from spillover effects and higher technology industries need longer period to confirm the effects. In order to understand FDI effects, we should keep in mind that the technological level of invested industries acts as a factor of their absorptive capacity.}, pages = {19--30}, title = {Effects of Foreign Direct Investment in Vietnam : An Empirical Analysis of Productivity Growth in Manufacturing Industries}, volume = {62}, year = {2014} }
