The press conference covered a Code of Conduct toward a world free from terrorism, Kazakhstan’s transportation and logistics, results of the 5th Caspian Summit in Aktau, the World Religious Leaders and Communications conference, the Astana Financial Center, and the 20th anniversary of Kazakhstan capital city establishment.
Kazakhstan’s Ambassador to Vietnam Beketzhan Zhumakhanov said: “Kazakhstan and Vietnam have organized a political dialogue which is effective. To promote economic and trade ties, we propose to establish a railway corridor from Vietnam, transit in China, to Kazakhstan, Russia, and European countries. The Astana International Financial Center offers financial access to Vietnamese businesses. Kazakhstan grows plants and raises animals that Vietnam doesn’t have, and vice verse. Last year, Kazakhstan transported 5,700 tons of wheat to Vietnam.”
The Ambassador said both countries can establish joint ventures. He has recommended Vietnam’s TH True Milk and Vinamilk to open facilities in Kazakhstan and invited other businesses to invest in agriculture.
