Best Answer

English: This is the modern "lingua franca" and many people, especially in Asia, learn English to do business with foreign firms or welcome tourists.

Chinese: China has had an incredible influence on Vietnam and is a regional power. In order to do business with China, many Vietnamese speak Chinese. There are also many Chinese immigrants in Vietnam.

French: Vietnam used to be part of the French Colony of Indochina and therefore many of the elderly generation remember when it was required to speak in French to get around the country.
