“...the Asia-Pacific paint market has been rated at almost 13.9 million tons in 2009,
and is forecast to grow by about 7.9% per year in the period to 2014, when the market
will top over 20 million tons.

Vietnam, which has attracted significant industry investment in recent years, is one of the fastest-growing economies in the Asian region and like Indonesia, it will become a good prospect for the paint industry, but on two levels. Firstly there is strong investment in construction and infrastructure. Secondly, accession of Vietnam to the World Trade Organization in the future is likely to liberate industry, which will translate into further industrial development, particularly in segments such as cars and manufacturing.”
