Abstract:
Apart from participating in the World Trade Organization (WTO), joining CPTPP and EVFTA will be an opportunity for Vietnam to continue to improve our economic law institutions, of which, there is an institutional for socialist-oriented market economy, one of the three strategic breakthroughs that Vietnam has identified; support the process of innovation of growth model and restructuring of our economy, while giving us more opportunities to improve the business environment in a more open, transparent and predictable way, approaching advanced international standards, thereby promoting both domestic and foreign investment. New generation of free trade agreements such as CPTPP and EVFTA poses some challenges for Viet Nam in terms of labor. Currently, CPTPP and EVFTA is applying the labour standards outlined in the 1998 Declaration on fundamental principles and rights at work of the ILO. Accordingly, the content of freedom of association and collective negotiation of workers and employers is a new issue, which has been adjusted by Vietnamese law in accordance with the agreements when Vietnam fully participates in the contents of these agreements.
