Vietnam needs to find a 'new path' for growth

Vietnam was once called the next China but now its growth - like its role model - is faltering.

The Asian nation's big population, and strategic location, seemed to place it perfectly to become the next big thing.

The BBC's chief business correspondent, Linda Yueh, has been looking around the country.
