Expressing his delight at the two countries' economic cooperation achievements, Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim emphasised both sides will continue promoting their economic ties in the coming time.
According to participants in the forum, the two countries have closely complementary economies. Malaysia, with a thriving manufacturing sector and advanced technology, will bring many investment opportunities for Vietnamese businesses. Similarly, Vietnam's dynamically and rapidly growing economy will provide Malaysia with a rich potential market for goods and service exchanges.
In particular, the two countries still have room for cooperation in a variety of fields such as real estate, energy, Halal products, food and beverage, construction and building materials, as well as medical and pharmaceutical products.
