In the late 1990s, the Vietnamese motorcycle industry faced the typical problems of an import-substituting industry. A limited number of foreign manufacturers producing high-priced, sophisticated products virtually monopolized a small market behind high tariff walls. In less than a decade, however, the industry emerged as the fourth largest in the world only after China, India, and Indonesia (Fujita 2011). The industry has been known as the only import-substituting industry in Vietnam that has successfully achieved high levels of product quality and international competitiveness (Ohno 2005: 47). It is also a success in the sense that some motorcycle manufacturers achieved local content ratios as high as 90% (The Motorbike Joint Working Group 2007: 49–50).
