Abstract
The Country Opinion Survey in Vietnam assists the World Bank Group (WBG) in gaining a better understanding of how stakeholders in Vietnam perceive the WBG. It provides the WBG with systematic feedback from national and local governments, multilateral/bilateral agencies, media, academia, the private sector, and civil society in Vietnam on:
1) their views regarding the general environment in Vietnam;
2) their overall attitudes toward the WBG in Vietnam;
3) overall impressions of the WBG’s effectiveness and results, knowledge work and activities, and communication and information sharing in Vietnam; and
4) their perceptions of the WBG’s future role in Vietnam.

Sampling
Sampling Procedure
From March 2020 through May 2020, 1,043 stakeholders of the World Bank in Vietnam were invited to provide their opinions on the WBG’s work in the country by participating in a Country Opinion Survey (COS). Participants were drawn from the office of the President and Prime Minister, office of a Minister, office of a Parliamentarian, employees of ministries/ministerial departments/implementation agencies, Project Management Units (PMUs) overseeing implementation of projects or consultants/contractors working on WBG-supported projects/ programs, local government officials or staff, independent government institutions, the judiciary, state-owned enterprises, bilateral agencies, multilateral agencies, public-private partnerships, private sector organizations, the financial sector/commercial banks, private foundations, NGOs/ community-based organizations (CBOs), trade unions, faith-based groups, youth groups, academia/research institutes/think tanks, and the media.
Response Rate
56%
Weighting
The results in this year’s Country Survey were compared to those in the FY’17 Country Survey (response rate was 43%, N=632). The samples from FY ’17 and FY ’20 were quite disparate among certain stakeholder groups, making it difficult to weight them for equivalence while maintaining statistical reliability. Therefore, the comparisons by year were analyzed using the original distribution of stakeholders for both years and because of that, it is possible that some differences in responding between years may reflect differences in the samples for FY ’17 and FY ’20, not necessarily changes in attitudes over time. For the year comparison results, please refer to Appendix D (see page 79).
