Trac affirmed that the Party and State of Vietnam highly value and support comprehensive and substantive cooperation between Fujian and Vietnam, urged both sides to continue promoting delegation exchanges at all levels, and encouraged Fujian large enterprises to expand investment in Vietnam, particularly in high-tech sectors, while calling on the Chinese province to create favourable conditions for Vietnamese businesses to export their key products, especially high-quality farm produce. The official emphasised the importance of strengthening people-to-people exchanges between Fujian and localities in Vietnam, laying a positive social foundation for the further development of bilateral relations.
For his part, Zhou affirmed that Fujian attaches importance to its collaboration with Vietnam and will step up friendship exchanges, share experience in Party building, promote cooperation in economics, trade and tourism, and encourage competent enterprises to expand high-quality investment in Vietnam.
