Vietnam evaluates trade, investment opportunities in Myanmar
(VOVworld) - The outlook for the Myanmar market looks good— showing high potential for Vietnam exports and investment, said Bui Huy Son, director of the Vietnam Trade Promotion Agency.
He made the comment in a speech at the opening of a 4-day trade fair running through December 25 showcasing Vietnamese commercial goods at the Tatmadaw Hall in Yangon, Myanmar.
Vietnamese companies and investors should seize the export and import opportunities in construction, agriculture, pharmaceuticals, hospital-healthcare, manufacturing, IT-technology, oil & gas as well as mining and energy, he noted.
