Vietnamese textile manufacturing is moving towards Cambodia and Laos (both figuratively and literally - lots of garment factories starting to open in Tay Ninh and Gia Lai).

The Bangladeshi textile industry will continues to remain for the foreseeable future, but textile manufacturing has started to return to India now that unskilled manufacturing wages are starting to reach the $150-200/month mark globally. When Bangladeshi and Indian unskilled labor starts going for $300-400/montn it will move to Nepal and then Eastern Africa (or Pakistan+Myanmar if their politics stabilizes).
