Note: Dependent variable: Sector switching (SW2) and exit (EXIT). Random effects probit estimation. All estimations included a constant
term and time dummies. t-values reported in parenthesis. *, **, *** indicate significance at a 10%, 5% and 1% level, respectively. Base: Food
processing and HCMC. The total number of sector switchers and exits are 1,076 and 1,937 in the unbalanced panel, respectively.
