As common trend, Cobb-Douglas production function is used to evaluate the robustness of determinants of economic growth in a dataset of six Southeast Asian countries from 1993 to 2009. The fixed effect model (FEM) is used to estimate this model. The results indicate that the most important source of economic growth of these countries is capital accumulation and labor.

During a rapid development process since the century of 19th, with an increasing growth in income and standard living, people’s welfare is improved considerably. In second haft of the 20th century, most countries have doubled their real income per capita when hand over from this generation to the next one. In particular, the rise of East Asian economies so called “Miracle” opens up important turning-point and attracts attentions of policies makers and researchers. However, there are a lot of emerged questions such as: (a) Why are some countries rich, and other poor? How some countries develop very quickly and stably with their citizens enjoying rapid increases in their average incomes, meanwhile others development are very slow or not at all? Commented [m1]: So ambitious to solve in this study; should delete (b) What are the determinants of economic growth and the characteristics that distinguish fast-growing from slower-growing countries? And as can be seen, after thousands years of very slow economic growth, the world economy suddenly experienced an enormous change explosion, but why it did not occur earlier; and why it occurred where it did, this country instead of that country. Commented [m2]: Rewrite into one paragraph Normally, developed and developing countries focus on how to foster economy in balance between fast growth and sustainable development. As a matter of fact, it’s very challenging question and not easy to find out the unique solution. As there’s no a general answer for growth problems of developing countries, economists suggest some approaches to impulse the growth process. Firstly, that is applying open commodities markets but isolating from international capital market in order to stabilize and increase economic independence. Secondly, developing countries can choose industrialization way by their own policies such as indirect subsidization. Thirdly, they can combine these policies above depending on specific conditions of 1 TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com each nation. However, the issue here that is developing countries need to consider which best solutions they should choose to benefit economic most. Since 1975, when being reunified, Vietnam had applied a central planning economic system following Soviet model program named “Doi moi” (1) 1986 to open out the world and built a market-based economy. It began to step in a new page of history onwards. As the result, Vietnam has achieved a high rate of economic growth to get out the list of least developed nations. During the economic reform and growth, capital accumulation and labor played main roles in a finding by Ngoc (2008) found out. That contribution from other factors such as human capital and technological progress are likely to be still limited. This statement is the same for other countries in Southeast Asia. In order to achieve sustainable growth in coming years, some researches (Ngoc, 2008) suggest that Vietnam should enforce their growth based on a working productivity improvement. Obviously, sustainable development and growth are very important for developing countries, in particular Southeast Asia. The annual higher economic growth is usually a good sign; however it’s not always mean this development is sustainable or at good statement, vice versa it can be a bubble or overheating development. However, the economic growth seems to be an important indicator for evaluating a health of an economy. Because of importance of economic growth of a nation, my study would like to experiment on the contribution of determinants such as capital, labor, etc… to economic growth of Vietnam and other Southeast Asian countries including Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippine, Singapore, and Thailand through the period 1993-2009. And I hope this paper can disclose a part of development picture of Vietnam as well as Southeast Asia nations. Consequently, the suggestion for _________________________ (1) Doi moi is the name of policy change from a central planning economic system to market economy in Vietnam in 1986. 2 TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com implication policies can be made base on this research result. In particular, through it, Vietnam can get the lessons for suggestions on the trend that Vietnam should pursue for its long term stable development in coming years.2 Research structure: The content of this study is divided into 6 chapters: Chapter I – Introduction Chapter II – Research objectives and research questions Chapter III – Literature review Chapter IV – Research Methodology Chapter V – Data analysis and discussion Chapter VI – Conclusion and policy recommendation The chapter I is introduction. Chapter II determines the Research Objectives and Research Questions which this study will carry out in next parts. The very important content is Chapter III - Literature Review, reviews some theoretical frameworks of economic development and growth.
