Business will be booming if all of those Chinese start investing here instead of Vietnam... maybe China will follow Putin's lead and annex Vietnam to "protect Chinese citizens".

There is also the Western businesses, currently based in China, that are choosing to relocate to Vietnam, for financial and control reasons. Will Cambodia now become a much more attractive option to Vietnam and maybe even Thailand (but that is early days) Despite the tragic events around the 4th of January, Cambodia is enjoying a period of comparative calm.
