Aevamo’s reading
The consolidated Law on Entry, Exit, Transit and Residence of Foreigners in Vietnam is the statute that imposes the visa requirement on foreigners entering Vietnam (Điều 20) and that authorises the Government to grant unilateral visa exemptions (Điều 13) and to decide the e-visa country list (Điều 19a); the resolutions and bilateral agreements are grants made under it.
The reciprocal exchange of notes between Vietnam and the Philippines exempts ordinary-passport holders from a visa for up to 21 days.

What this answer covers Limits & assumptions
Work and residence rights are separate from this check. This is the entry rule and the length of stay the instrument grants. It is not a decision about you: the officer at the border decides admission, and we do not evaluate the purpose of your trip, your passport's remaining validity, an onward ticket, funds, insurance or health requirements.
