V. Read the following and do as directed.

Traditional markets have long played an important role in Vietnamese commerce and community life. However, these bustling places are now facing an existential threat as consumers flock to online platforms. The convenience and competitive pricing of online shopping leaves age-old markets struggling to survive, forcing businesses to adapt or perish. Hà Nội’s historic wholesale markets, Đồng Xuân and Hôm markets, are typical of this transformation. “Customers buy everything online, and they don’t go to the market anymore,” one long-time clothing vendor said. Once-crowded aisles are now empty, and the chatter of bargaining has been replaced by the bored scrolling of vendors on their phones. This results from the difficulty of matching the aggressive pricing of online sellers. High overhead costs like rent, employee salaries and transportation have become too much of a heavy burden for vendors.
Another challenge faced by traditional retailers is their limited physical location. While online retailers can reach customers from all over the world, vendors at local markets only restricts their reach to a specific geographical area. Consumers living far from markets have to travel over a long distance to buy groceries. Such challenge requires vendors to expand their reach by offering online shopping options.
It is certain that the future of Việt Nam’s retail sector will be a combination of tradition and technology. The challenge for traditional markets is not just about survival; it is about finding ways to integrate and offer an experience e-commerce cannot replicate.
