Expo, forum to boost Mekong investment
The four-day event was co-organised by the Vietnam-Laos-Cambodia Association for Economic Cooperation Development (VILACAED), the Vietfair Company, and the Vietnamese Ministries of Planning and Investment, Industry and Trade, and Foreign Affairs.
Around 200 companies from 15 countries and territories, including Cambodia, China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, India, the Republic of Korea, Japan, Laos and Myanmar, spotlight their products in 300 stalls at the exhibition. Also on display are machinery and equipment for various sectors, such as agriculture, seafood processing, leather, garment and textile, footwear, chemicals, banking, finance, and insurance services.
During the exhibition, a forum entitled “Toward a Dynamic GMS for Investment” will take place on Dec. 10, with the aim of improving the investment environment, infrastructure and human resources in the region.
Business representatives will have the chance to propose ways of solving problems in investment and trade to the region’s governments.
Earlier, a similar event was held in Hanoi, with a focus on overcoming the ongoing economic crisis.
