| Summary/Abstract |
This paper examines the development of Vietnam's services sector in terms of economic liberalization and global value chain (GVC) activities. In particular, the analysis focuses on the growth of e-commerce services. The study uses domestic Input-Output tables and the TiVA database to identify backward and forward linkages between the country's services and manufacturing sectors. Apart from mapping e-commerce activities, the paper also makes key policy recommendations to improve service linkages and GVC activities in Vietnam.
