WHAT\u2019S NEW AROUND YOU?<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The complicated developments of the fourth Covid wave have brought many difficulties to the economy and impeded the production shift to Vietnam by “big names” such as Google, Apple. However, thanks to the reduction in passenger traffic due to the epidemic, Tan Son Nhat airport was named among the top 10 best airports in the world. This is good news for the national aviation industry!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

  TAN SON NHAT NAMED AMONG WORLD\u2019S BEST AIRPORTS<\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

HCMC\u2019s Tan Son Nhat International Airport has been recognized by Skytrax as one of the world\u2019s 10 best airports that handled 20-25 million passengers in 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Skytrax made the rankings by asking passengers about infrastructure, service quality, personnel, and procedure processes at over 500 airports around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Skytrax surveyed and ranked in many categories. For example, the rankings done by passenger numbers for the 20-25 million passengers group was 10th while London\u2019s Heathrow (United Kingdom) topped the list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The terminals at Tan Son Nhat have recently been upgraded, and more screening equipment has been installed. In addition, the airport has also implemented COVID-19 prevention and control measures to ensure passengers\u2019 and officials\u2019 safety and staff in the context of epidemics. As a result, it has received Airport Health Accreditation (AHA) from the Airports Council International (ACI).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With an aviation industry heavily damaged by the epidemic, in 2020, Tan Son Nhat airport still served more than 22 million passengers, including 2.8 million international arrivals. The previous year, before the pandemic began, it had handled some 40 million passengers against a designed capacity of 25 million per year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Skytrax, the International air transport rating organization, was established in 1989. In addition, and is based in London, UK. It provides the professional, unified Quality classification system of airline and airport standards worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

COVID SLOWS APPLE AND GOOGLE PRODUCTION SHIFT TO VIETNAM<\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Recent outbreaks of COVID-19 are disrupting plans by Apple, Google, Amazon, and their key suppliers to shift production from China to Vietnam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example, Google’s upcoming Pixel 6 smartphone range will be built in China. Even though the company had planned to move the handsets to northern Vietnam early last year, four people familiar with the matter said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apple, meanwhile, will start mass-producing its latest AirPods earphones in China instead of in Vietnam as previously planned, two people familiar with the situation said. However, the company still hopes to move around 20% of new AirPods production to Vietnam later. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the people said that Apple’s plan to bring some MacBook and iPad production to Vietnam has also been put on hold due to a lack of engineering resources, an incomplete notebook computer supply chain, and the dynamic COVID situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Production of smart doorbells, security cameras, and smart speakers for Amazon, which recently moved to Vietnam, has also faced delays since May as assembly lines in the northern part of the country coped with a surge in local cases and stricter COVID prevention measures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to its young labor force and proximity to China, Vietnam was well placed to attract tech manufacturers when Washington began imposing punitive tariffs on Chinese-made goods in 2018. As a result, suppliers of Apple, Google, Amazon, Microsoft, and Dell have set up or expanded factories in the country over the past few years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Building a new regional supply chain, however, also requires experienced engineers and training for local workers. Unfortunately, Vietnam’s engineering workforce is still far from adequate. And sending workers to Vietnam has also become more difficult since a wave of infections intensified in May.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moreover, Vietnamese provinces also ordered factories to halt production to combat the recent surge in infections. For example, Samsung Electronics temporarily halted production in Ho Chi Minh City and scaled back its workforce because of the intensified COVID. Key Apple suppliers Foxconn, Luxshare, and Goertek in May also briefly suspended production in northern Vietnam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Annabelle Hsu, an analyst with research company IDC, said that any setback for Vietnam, which has already emerged as a critical alternative manufacturing location to China, is likely to be temporary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apple, Amazon and Google declined to comment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
