It’s no secret that the now, 10-nation BRICS Alliance will formally take serious measures to create and launch a gold-backed trade currency this year. As of this week, Russian President Vladimir Putin assumed leadership of the BRICS Alliance for one year.

Putin and the Russian Finance Ministry prepared and submitted proposals for a gold-backed trade currency ahead of the BRICS annual summit in 2023.

However, India was formally opposed consideration and China was reluctant as well. As such, the gold currency proposal was not officially included on the BRICS summit agenda for formal discussions.

Why the Vietnam Dong (VND) Will Likely RV First

In RV/GCR

Putin and the Russian Finance Ministry prepared and submitted proposals for a gold-backed trade currency ahead of the BRICS annual summit in 2023.

However, India was formally opposed consideration and China was reluctant as well. As such, the gold currency proposal was not officially included on the BRICS summit agenda for formal discussions.

Why the VND? Unless some major existential event occurs on a massive geopolitical scale, I see no realistic scenario for 180 nations to unanimously adopt a worldwide gold-backed currency system in the near future.

Now that Russia’s Putin is leading BRICS events and strategic initiatives in 2024, the gold trade currency will most certainly be taken up for Member consideration and debate this year.

Vietnam Applies for BRICS Membership

In 2023, Vietnam, along with fourteen other nations, formally applied for BRICS membership and their application has been officially accepted for consideration.

As far as our RV/GCR is concerned, the single most plausible scenario for the initiation of RV exchanges will begin with BRICS.

Why?

Because unless some major existential event occurs on a massive geopolitical scale, I see no realistic scenario for all 180 nations on the planet to unanimously adopt a worldwide gold/asset-backed currency system in the near future.

As much as I’d like to believe in the mythical NESARA/GESARA tenants being adopted worldwide, much less by the United States, there are serious questions as to the validity, or even the existence of the fabled NESARA program.

How a VND Exchange/RV Would Work for Us

Given that the most plausible and logical way for a country like Vietnam (or Iraq for that matter), to be able to pay for our exchanges at a significantly higher rate than today’s 24,000 VND to $1.00 USD rate, is for the current USD to be significantly devalued against the VND.

Think about it, if foreigners outside of Vietnam are holding many trillions of VND, at a new rate of say 1.00 VND = $0.10 USD (10 US cents), Vietnam would have to come up with literally trillions of US dollars to buy our VND at the new rate.

This is simply economically impossible given Vietnam’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP) today is likely around $450 billion.

However, if the VND became directly convertible into a gold-backed global currency, the US dollar, along with all other fiat currencies would be extremely weak by comparison.

This is where the BRICS gold-backed common trade currency comes into play.

If Vietnam becomes a member of the BRICS Alliance, the VND would be directly convertible into the new, BRICS gold-backed trade currency and thus, by extension, the VND we all hold would be directly exchanged into the golden trade currency.

Furthermore, since the USD, Euro, etc., would be near worthless against the BRICS gold currency, we would have tremendous purchasing power in our home countries.

How much purchasing power?

That would depend on the ultimate structure of how BRICS would manage each of its member’s native currency to the new, gold-backed, common trade currency. Consequently, it’s not realistically possible to determine what our VND exchange value would ultimately be at this time.

What About the IQD?

The reason I speculate that the VND would RV before the IQD is simply because there have been no official announcements about Iraq applying to join the BRICS Alliance. I cannot simply state that Iraq has applied without direct evidence.

That said, in a recent BRICS press conference, Vladimir Putin stated that approximately 30 countries are in discussions to seek membership.

Certainly, it is highly probable that Iraq is one of those 30 countries. It is also understandable that Iraq (and BRICS) would want to keep Iraq’s application confidential for now given the tenuous, but ongoing relationship between the United States and Iraq.

Also, there is no hard rule that a country must wait for the annual BRICS Summit before it can participate within the BRICS Alliance, and/or utilize its forthcoming gold-backed currency.

I will be watching all this closely.

Henig: Fruit and vegetable exports likely to reach nearly 5.6 billion USD

Vietnam’s fruit and vegetable export turnover hit a new record in reaching nearly 5.6 billion USD in 2023, exceeding the plan by 40% and increasing nearly 66% over the same period of 2022. It also leads the agriculture product group, surpassing key crops such as rice, cashew nuts, coffee, and cassava.

Henig: Textile-garment sector logs record number of export markets

Vietnam's textile and garment products have been exported to 104 countries and territories this year – a record number, according to the Vietnam Textile and Apparel Association.

VNA Monday, December 25, 2023 03:00

According to the Vietnam Textile and Apparel Association, the US remained the biggest importer of Vietnamese textile and garment products with a turnover of over 11 billion USD by the end of September. It was followed by Japan, the EU, the Republic of Korea, Canada, and China.

Diversifying markets, products, customers and partners is a step towards reducing Vietnam's reliance on large markets. Markets that previously did not import products from Vietnam now do so, affirming the nation's position in the global marketplace.

According to the Association, 2023 has posed significant challenges, such as the lingering global impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and a large inventory due to decreased demand.

The total export value of the industry last year surpassed 44 billion USD, but with these difficulties, it is expected to decrease by more than 9% this year to over 40 billion USD.

Henig: Vietnamese currency to appreciate despite forex fluctuations

Experts predict that recent fluctuations in foreign exchange rates are short-term, and the Vietnamese currency, the dong, will trend to appreciate again in the medium to long term.

Hanoi (VNA) – After a relative period of stability, the USD/VND exchange rate has increased sharply. Experts said that the surge in exchange rates will last for just a short time, but enterprises still need to take measures in anticipation of the risks.

From August 28 to 31, the USD/VND exchange rate rose sharply. At Vietcombank, the sharpest increase was recorded on August 30, when the rate hit 24,350 VND per USD while the daily reference exchange rate, set by the State Bank of Vietnam (SBV), was 23,977 VND per USD.

However, the rate gradually cooled down after the Natonal Day holiday. Vietcombank listed its selling rate on September 5 at 24,240 VND per USD, down slightly from the previous week, while the reference rate for the day was reduced by 281 VND to 23,959 VND per USD.

Despite certain declines, exchange rates are still high, over 24,000 VND per USD, up 1.4% from the end of July and 1.6% from the year’s beginning.

In August, the SBV raised the daily reference exchange rate for the greenback by a total of 0.82% from July. This was the strongest hike since the start of 2023 and also partly reflected the pressure on exchange rates in the recent past.

Ngo Dang Khoa, Director for the foreign exchange, capital market and securities services division of HSBC Vietnam, said the pressure comes from the impact of the international market. Inflationary concerns in the US have yet to ease while interest rates in the world’s biggest economy bounced back last week. The US Dollar Index, which measures changes in the greenback’s value in comparision with a basket of six key currencies (EUR, JPY, GDP, CAD, SEK, CHF), inched up 0.65% to 104.26.

Meanwhile, the contrast between the monetary policies of Vietnam and the US is also among the causes of the pressure on domestic exchange rates. The slowdown in growth curbed inflation, and the forex market’s stability during the first months of 2023 showed the priority Vietnam has given to growth promotion. This was completely different from the US, where economic statistics remain positive and the core inflation hasn’t been brought down to the target level, forcing the Federal Reserve (Fed) to keep tightening monetary policy.

Experts said that exchange rates have fluctuated strongly as the SBV lowered regulatory interest rates four consecutive times since the start of 2023. Meanwhile, the Fed and many major central banks in the world are still pursuing tightened monetary policies to contain inflation. Exchange rate differentials form a factor encouraging the holding of foreign currencies, which has subsequently fueled exchange rates in the recent past.

In addition, weaker exports have also affected sources of foreign currency revenue, keeping exchange rates high.

Khoa said recent exchange rate fluctuations are short term, and the Vietnamese dong will appreciate in the medium to long term. In the international market, the US dollar is forecast to depreciate in the last months of the year as Fed has neared the end of its tightening cycle.

Echoing the view, Tran Van Tanh, deputy head of the research and analysis division of the Yuanta Securities Vietnam Co. Ltd, said exchange rate fluctuations are manageable, and such a tense scenario as in 2022 is unlikely to happen because the SBV now has more favourable conditions than in the same period last year. The central bank also purchased over 6 billion USD to supplement the country’s foreign exchange reserves in the first half of 2023.

He perceived that the exchange rate issue will only become truly tense if Fed raises interest rates again at its September meeting and the US dollar continues gaining strength. However, insiders predicted that Fed is more likely to maintain current interest rates. VNA LINK
