Tiger Woods in surgery after roll-over car crash

February 24, 2021 by www.vir.com.vn

ROLLING HILLS ESTATES, CA – FEBRUARY 23: A sign for the Genesis Invitational golf tournament is seen on the door of the car that golf legend Tiger Woods was driving when seriously injured in a rollover accident on February 23, 2021 in Rolling Hills Estates, California. Rescuers used hydraulic rescue tools to extricate him from the car where he reportedly sustained major leg injuries. Law enforcement reports that there was no evidence of impairment.

Woods did not appear to be under the influence of drugs or alcohol during the early-morning incident, and underwent surgery after the roll-over collision, said Los Angeles County Sheriff Alex Villanueva.

No other vehicles or passengers were involved in the crash which occurred on a steep stretch of road known as an accident “hotspot,” where Woods was travelling at “a greater speed than normal,” said the sheriff.

“I will say that it’s very fortunate that Mr. Woods was able to come out of this alive,” said deputy Carlos Gonzalez, the first officer to arrive on scene.

Gonzalez found Woods trapped in his vehicle but conscious, appearing “calm and lucid” and able to identify himself to the deputy as “Tiger.”

“It is my understanding that he had serious injuries to both legs,” said Los Angeles County fire chief Daryl Osby, describing Woods’ condition as “stable.”

Firefighters and paramedics extricated Woods from the wreckage of his SUV and transported him with a neck collar and backboard to a local hospital via road, where he underwent surgery.

There was “no evidence of impairment at this time” including any influence of narcotics, mediciation or alcohol, said Villanueva, adding that the crash remained “subject to investigation.”

He added that no blood was drawn at the scene of the crash because the sheriff’s office does not have that capability.

Woods, one of the most successful golfers of all time, has won 15 major golf championships.

He recently underwent his fifth back surgery, and said he was uncertain if he will be able to play at the upcoming Masters, which he last won in 2019.

Woods, 45, was in the area for his annual Genesis Invitational golf tournament at the Riviera Country Club, and was driving a courtesy car on the morning of the crash.

“We are awaiting further information when he comes out of surgery. On behalf of the PGA Tour and our players, Tiger is in our prayers and will have our full support as he recovers,” said PGA Tour commissioner Jay Monahan said in a statement.

– ‘True champion’ –

The crash occurred near the hilly Palos Verdes peninsula, at the bottom of a steep stretch of road which has runaway truck ramps for vehicles that lose control going downhill.

The section has become notorious for fatal accidents over the years.

“Apparently the first contact was with the center median, and from there (the car) crossed into the opposing lane of traffic, hit the curb, hit a tree, and there was several rollovers during that process,” said Villanueva, who did not provide a cause of the crash.

The car ended up several hundred feet from the inital impact, lying on its side on a patch of grass some distance off the road, with its hood badly damaged.

News of the crash spread rapidly around the sport world and beyond, with figures inside and outside golfing swift to send their prayers and best wishes to Woods.

Skier Lindsey Vonn, Woods’ former girlfriend, tweeted: “Praying for TW right now.”

“Sending my prayers to @TigerWoods and his family tonight — here’s to a speedy recovery for the GOAT of golf,” said former US president Barack Obama.

“If we’ve learned anything over the years, it’s to never count Tiger out.”

Fellow ex-president Donald Trump, speaking to Fox, urged Woods to “get better and get out there because we all miss him.”

– ‘Deeply concerned’ –

Woods was one of the most revered athletes in the world when he became engulfed in scandal in late 2009.

He smashed his car into a tree and a fire hydrant outside his luxury Florida home, sparking a series of scandalous revelations that doomed his marriage and put his game in freefall.

He later divorced from his Swedish wife Elin Nordegren, with whom he has two children, after a cascade of women came forward to say they had affairs with the golfer, making him fodder for tabloids around the world.

Woods underwent four back surgeries between 2014 and 2017.

In May 2017, Woods was arrested near his Florida home for being asleep at the wheel of his car in a traffic lane.

Woods said he had taken prescription drugs and pleaded guilty to reckless driving.

But he made an astonishing comeback to win the Masters in 2019, his first major title since 2008.

He is the winner of 82 US PGA titles, level with Sam Snead for the all-time record.

In 2000-2001, while aged just 25, Woods became the first man to hold the US Open, British Open, the USPGA and the Masters titles at the same time.

Woods remains three major victories shy of the all-time record 18 won by Jack Nicklaus.

“Barbara and I just heard about Tiger’s accident, and like everyone else, we are deeply concerned,” tweeted Nicklaus.

“We want to offer him our heartfelt support and prayers at this difficult time. Please join us in wishing Tiger a successful surgery and all the best for a full recovery.”

Mutual merit in Australian investment

February 26, 2021 by www.vir.com.vn

Vietnam’s success in containing COVID-19 with minimal economic fallout compared to other nations has improved its already-strong reputation for competent governance. The government has been liberalising Vietnam’s economy for decades and is now reaping the benefits of rapid growth.

Vietnam has stood to gain from the recent US-China trade conflict with many companies relocating at least some of their production facilities there. Vietnam is also rapidly adopting digital technologies to deploy automation, smart manufacturing, and big data analytics. Competent economic management, consistent reforms, swift digital uptake, and effective COVID-19 containment make Vietnam a very attractive destination for trade and investment in 2021 and beyond.

Economically, Vietnam is becoming a manufacturing powerhouse, particularly for electronics and apparel. It is also becoming a focal point for regional value chains with preferential access through free trade agreements (FTAs).

It has taken up trade deal commitments and accepted assistance to develop the institutional and regulatory environment, infrastructure, and facilitation to attract investment. The country is also actively working on non-tariff barriers to trade including intellectual property protection, food safety regulations, restrictions on the internet and digital economy, and other governance issues to accelerate the absorption of investment.

Vietnam needs to be considered in terms of its unique qualities and context. It is following its own development path in a new time, with different conditions, drivers, and realities. Comparisons can be made to Japan with its appreciation of tradition; to Singapore with its open trade policies and architecture; China’s southern Guangdong province in population scale and economic activity; and Indonesia in terms of benefits from a demographic dividend.

Vietnam has a web of FTAs that make it a strategic location for foreign investment as it offers preferential access to several markets. Vietnam continues to attract high levels of such funding from Japan, South Korea, Singapore, China, the United States, and other countries.

Vietnam maintains an ASEAN-first policy but is drawing attention from global investors, particularly due to its economic growth despite COVID-19 and attracted projects from more than 100 countries into its industrial zones during 2020.

Approaching the market

The drivers of growth in Vietnam create attractive conditions and opportunities for Australian business in the post-pandemic environment. There is scope for manufacturing, agriculture, resources, and services businesses to expand engagement with Vietnam, now and into the medium term. The country’s rapid evolution will continue creating further chances as the economy and consumption mature.

There can be an increase in trade in goods where Australia has proven export capacity and readiness to meet demand in Vietnam. There are also possible increases in the value-added contribution of Australian content in Vietnam’s exports of manufactured products.

In addition, there are prospects to increase services trade in existing and new areas, particularly around education, healthcare, insurance, and environmental services. Both governments have prioritised these sectors under the expanding bilateral economic framework. Investment opportunities exist across the manufacturing, agriculture, services, and resources sectors and there are also those in relation to Vietnam’s digital transformation.

Globally, Vietnam is a major exporter of electronic equipment, apparel, and footwear. In terms of the Vietnam-Australia bilateral relationship, there are prospects for expanding Australian exports of beef, wheat and barley, cotton, horticultural products and processed food. There is also scope to expand exports of services in the education, ICT, mining technology, insurance, and environmental and healthcare sectors.

Australian businesses should also be aware of new prospects emerging in relation to Vietnam’s digital transformation and efforts to modernise economic activity through automation, AI, the Internet of Things, and big data.

Vietnam’s top merchandise imports from Australia are coal, iron ore, cotton, live animals, scrap iron, wheat, aluminium, copper, zinc, fruit, and nuts. The proportion of raw materials in the trade flows has steadily increased this century and now represents around half of all Australian merchandise exports.

Trade opportunities for Australia are supported by policy settings in Vietnam that are generally encouraging of foreign investment to advance the country’s position as a major regional trader. Australia’s exports show that businesses are already participating in value chains to which Vietnam belongs.

When semi-processed metals and fibre are shipped from Australia, it is likely they are being sourced by Vietnamese factories as inputs for final products, many of which are exported again for sale.

Vietnam is a promising market for company investment as a densely populated, developing, and urbanising country which is transitioning to an industrial and market-based economy through trade and investment and making great strides to position itself for Industry 4.0. Australia is currently a relatively small investor, but stock has doubled since 2015 and is growing faster than Australian investment into other ASEAN economies.

Most of Australia’s investment in Vietnam is in manufacturing (47 per cent) with lower levels in hospitality (8 per cent), construction/real estate (7 per cent), agribusiness (6 per cent), and healthcare (6 per cent).

Vietnam has historically had some state-owned enterprises (SOEs) with monopolies in particular sectors, some of which continue to operate. Under the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP), Vietnam has committed to providing member countries with a level playing field for their companies competing with SOEs and ensuring any state-designated monopolies do not abuse their market power. Vietnam has also introduced legislation to equitise and divest SOEs and monopolies and ensure that they are offered only limited state preferences.

The CPTPP provides preferential access for Australian businesses to invest in Vietnam. It has the most liberal conditions for any foreign investors in Vietnam and these conditions are also available to other CPTPP members, including two of Vietnam’s largest investors, Japan and Singapore.

Australian movement

Australian businesses are being urged to expand engagement with Asia to capitalise on economic complementarities, diversify supply chains, and benefit from regional growth and integration. As an advanced and globally connected economy in the region, Australia is well placed to benefit from engagement with neighbouring Asian economies to build trade, investment, and innovation networks.

Even before the pandemic, heightened geopolitical tensions in the region driven by a more competitive relationship between the United States and China had highlighted the need for Australia to have a broad and diverse network of trading partners. Many companies in the US and Australia began to adopt a China+1 strategy, with Vietnam emerging as a preferred option.

As the pandemic struck and brought many supply chains to a standstill, first in China and then around the world, businesses and governments soon became painfully aware of their exposure to policy changes overseas. In some cases, this led to calls in Australia to re-shore supply chains, especially for essential medical supplies. More generally, although trade with Vietnam and other economies will not replace trade with China, it may help build resilience.

Australia is generally well-regarded in Vietnam. It is a considered a high-income, advanced economy with much to offer in terms of technology, managerial know-how, and skills. Brand Australia has a strong reputation for being high-quality, safe, and reliable. Exports of goods such as baby products, food, vitamins, and supplements are testament to this reputation.

As the business culture in Vietnam is strongly governed by relationships, Australian businesses should draw on the thriving Australia-Vietnam ecosystem already in place. Onshore and offshore resources are available from national and state governments, industry bodies, academia, students, alumni, diaspora, and locals. The insights and connections of Vietnamese diaspora in Australia, Australian expatriates in Vietnam, and Australian-educated Vietnamese students and graduates will prove invaluable to prospective businesses.

There are a lot of economic complementarities underpinning trade and investment between Australia and Vietnam, as well as traded sectors with the most potential for growth. Besides these, numerous opportunities are arising from the rapid digital transformation of both economies with the adoption of smart manufacturing, digital technologies, and data analytics.

Both governments are equally open about their support for a rules-based security and economic order in Asia, continued trade liberalisation and the centrality of ASEAN in maintaining regional stability.

There has been no better time for Australian businesses to engage in Vietnam. Despite pandemic-related challenges, its economy grew by nearly 3 per cent in 2020 while many of its regional peers, including Australia, fell into recession. Opportunities will continue to unfold for Australian businesses which are willing to engage and adapt to local market conditions, cultural realities, and leverage Australia’s unique assets in the burgeoning eco-system.

Developing value chains for agricultural products

February 18, 2021 by en.nhandan.org.vn

Many effective models

According to the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development of Bac Lieu Province, through the process of agricultural restructuring, many models of the linking value chains in the production, processing and consumption of agricultural products have been formed, bringing high economic efficiency. Currently, the province’s many companies and units of shrimp farming in the form of a closed value chain were recognised as agricultural enterprises applying high technology or certified by international standards of aquaculture such as GlobalGAP, BAP, ASC, and Organic. In addition, the province has steadily developed the rice industry following a large production model, joining the value chain, with rice output increased from 1.066 million tonnes in 2015 to 1.15 million tonnes by 2020.

In Hai Duong, the agricultural sector has also been promoting the formation of value chains for agricultural products. Accordingly, the province has been focusing on building agricultural production zones for export processing, high-tech agricultural zones, and expanding production scale according to the GAP assessment process. Up to now, the whole province has 335 hectares of organic rice, 114 rice-growing models of “one zone, one variety, one time”, with the minimum scale of 30 hectares per zone. Specialised vegetable growing areas with high efficiency continue to be maintained and expanded. Thanks to production in value chains in 2020, many agricultural products of the province will be exported through official channels to high quality markets, such as: lychee, longan exported to Japan and the US; carrots to the Republic of Korea (ROK), Japan, and Middle Eastern countries; cabbage to the ROK and Japan; pickled cucumbers to Russia and the ROK; and onion and garlic to Malaysia.

Meanwhile, according to the Hung Yen Provincial Department of Agriculture and Rural Development, the province has successfully implemented the project “Building and developing models of production and consumption chain of agricultural products” in the direction of producing quality goods, ensuring food safety. The project spent more than VND26 billion to support science – technology, infrastructure, and promoting product consumption, including applying advanced technology in production chains, food business, disseminating knowledge and guidance on cultivation and husbandry techniques. Through project implementation, in Hung Yen, many typical models appeared, such as: Hoang Minh Chau Co., Ltd. with a group of turmeric products including: Nano Curcumin, Nano Collagen turmeric milk, turmeric cream, turmeric starch; and the Mien Thiet longan cooperative with Hung Yen longan.

Towards sustainable development

Building value chains for agricultural products is one of the important solutions towards the sustainable development goals of the entire agricultural sector. Over the past time, several models of value chains have been formed and have been remarkably effective, but they are not high in quantity nor evenly distributed in fields and trades. This is attributed to the fact that agricultural production in many regions of the country is still small and fragmented, it is difficult to form concentrated production zones to apply science – technology as well as control issues related to food safety and hygiene. Therefore, in the coming time, it is necessary to promote the formation of value chain models in the forms such as cooperatives, cooperative groups associated with enterprises; Manufacturing enterprises associated with distribution firms; Enterprise performing all stages in the chain.

Therefore, localities should soon plan concentrated agricultural production zones, as a basis for the formation of value chains. In Bac Lieu Province, according to the plan, by 2025, the province will promote investment in building an aquaculture zone, a high-tech aquatic seed production area with 4,000 hectares of farming; implementing large fields associated with rice consumption to reach 100,000 hectares, accounting for more than 51% of the cultivated area. In addition, the local agricultural sector also continues to guide and support production and business establishments in the direction of scaling up, ensuring all the conditions to convert activities into new-style cooperatives or business. At the same time, the province will also support businesses, cooperatives, and business households to participate in the programme “One Commune, One Product” (OCOP) to link production and consumption in the value chain to increase high added value.

In order to develop the value chain of local specialty products, in 2018, the Prime Minister issued Decision No.490/QĐ-TTg approving the National Programme of One Commune, One Product for the 2018-2020 period (OCOP Programme). The goal of this program is to standardise at least 50 percent of the existing products, or about 2,400 products, while consolidating and perfecting production organisation in the direction of linking production households with cooperatives and enterprises.
