根据2006年越南家庭生活水平调查的数据，残疾与越南的贫困密切相关，特别是考虑到残疾人生活的额外费用。这种残疾与贫穷的联系还与受教育程度较低有关，这是决定贫穷和一般生产性经济活动的一个重要因素，无论是家庭企业还是有薪就业。如果不考虑这些联系和残疾的额外费用，将使一些贫穷的残疾人在贫穷统计数字中被忽略，阻碍减贫努力。
Disability is significantly correlated with poverty in Vietnam, according to data from the 2006 Vietnam Household Living Standards Survey, especially when the extra costs of living with a disability are taken into account. This disability-poverty link is also associated with lower educational attainment, an important factor in determining poverty and productive economic activity in general, both for household-based businesses and wage employment. Not taking into account these associations and the extra costs of disability will make some poor disabled people invisible in poverty statistics and impede efforts to reduce poverty.
