America’s image is mostly positive among the Asian nations polled. Particularly large majorities see the U.S. favorably in the Philippines (92%), South Korea (84%) and Vietnam (77%).

It’s from 2015 but more recent polls have found similar data IIRC

79% of people polled in Vietnam chose the US in the “Preferred alignment choice in U.S.-China rivalry” which is a different metric obviously but still points towards the same idea

Edit: According to Luna Oi, Pew Research Center is a neoliberal think tank that cannot be trusted on anything about Vietnam

    (Speaking to your edit: yeah, I was/am hoping that these Pew & Brookings polls of Vietnamese sentiment are simply bad & wrong.)
