According to the news I read a moment ago, the first lot of AZ vaccine of 117,600 doses has arrived in Vietnam. A reporter asked if Vietnam has plan to purchase Chinese. The answer is "In addition to the vaccine sources as mentioned above, Vietnam is also actively negotiating with other partners around the world to meet the need of domestic vaccination". Chinese vaccines are not directly mentioned. Looks like Vietnam won't purchase Chinese vaccines in the foreseeable future.It's in China's interest to vaccinate Vietnam due to proximity tbh.
But can't help it if they just don't want Chinese vaccine.
