The study also examined the impact of the elements that make up Nation Brand on the attitude of its audiences. An online survey approach was used to collect the data with a sample of 436 Vietnamese Citizens and 100 non-citizens. Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) and Multiple Linear Regression then were employed to analyze the data with SPSS software. Findings of this empirical research indicate that Vietnam is perceived by its Citizens through only Tourism, Political efforts of the government (Governance), People and Export dimensions while all six dimensions of Anholt's Hexagon (People, Tourism, Governance, Investment, Culture, Export) existed in the perception of non-citizens. Implications also exist for policy makers and stakeholders about the importance of each elements of Nation brand on audiences’ attitude.
