My vote goes for huntsman spider, and a male one at that, but I can’t say which species. Will have a quick lookup and see if I can narrow it down for you

It’s hard to say given I don’t have a clear list of Vietnam spiders but this is a Sparassidae, ( a huntsman), and as for family some possibilities are Sinopoda, Rhithymna, Pseudopoda, and Heteropoda.

Circle to search also says huntsman spider. A more detailed close-up would be helpful
