    [HANOI] Vietnam will receive an estimated US$15.8 billion in actual foreign direct investment (FDI) in 2016, up 9 per cent from a year ago, the government said on Wednesday.

    New FDI pledges and additional funds to finance existing projects this year would rise 7 per cent from 2015 to a combined US$24.4 billion, the government said in an online report.
