Along with the process of integration and attracting international capital, the law about public corporate governance of Vietnam also includes the need to receive high standards of the regulations of other countries. However, to ensure the process of completing and exercising law enforcement effectively, helping to reduce enforcement costs for the corporation, the legal tradition of countries is a factor that needs to be considered adequately by the legal origin. The legal tradition has a profound influence on the reform and improvement of the country's modern legal system and is the source of the differences among countries' corporate governance legal systems. Legal traditions have a strong impact on investor protection mechanisms and corporate governance models. Within the scope of this article, the author generalizes the effects of legal traditions on the construction and consolidation of corporate governance laws of legal families in different countries. Simultaneously, the paper focuses on analyzing the case of Vietnam where there is a Civil legal tradition, but the corporate governance model is hybrid with the corporate governance model in countries with a Common law tradition. Consequently, the analysis shows the need to establish new values on the basis of legal traditions to modernize the law on public corporate governance in Vietnam. In addition, propose directions to improve the adjustment efficiency of Vietnam's public company governance law.
