Dear.List

Hello, This is Naotaka Nakamura, a Japanese student of an undergraduate

school. Thanks to you, I can know a lot of things on Vietnam.

Now, I’m studying about Vietnam’s internal migration. If my memory is

correct, in an era, almost of all Vietnamese were restricted their mobility

in some ways. But I’m not sure. I really appreciate if you tell me some

materials about this point.

Best regards

The 1992 constitution guarantees the rights of all citizens to move for economic reasons. Many conditions were attached to this, but, in a word the constitutions still holds as the basis for all efforts at liberalization since.
