Education is highly valued in Vietnam but the state system is under considerable strain. The government is encouraging those who can afford to study overseas to do so. Families who invest in an overseas education will select courses that are likely to lead to lucrative careers on return to Vietnam, especially with multinational companies or personal business development. There has been an increasing number of self-funded students studying abroad in recent years. Vietnamese students often choose Australia, UK, the United States, Canada and France, etc. as their destinations for study.
