I'd say Acalolepta sp.
It could be Acalolepta subsulphurifer Breuning, 1965 ...but I haven't the original description of this species. Breuning says in his key in Laos fauna (1970): "pubescence yellow on entire surface of elytra"

The problem is identifying the colour of this species.
If it is brown with strong silver reflections, it should be A. pseudosericans Breuning.

After the type, A. subsulphurifer is opaque yellow (and not recorded from Vietnam yet)
