Philippine firms encouraged to invest in VN

Vietnamese Ambassador to the Philippines, Truong Trieu Duong, has called on Philippine businesses to expand their investment in Viet Nam.

Speaking at the 22nd Metro Manila Business Conference early this week held in Manila, the Ambassador briefed participants on Viet Nam's economic integration policies as well as the country's advantages.

Philippine firms said they placed high value on Viet Nam's investment environment and took this opportunity to thoroughly enquire about business opportunities in country.

Hosted by the Philippine Chamber of Commerce and Industry, the conference aimed to gear up for regional integration as an ASEAN economic community will be formed by 2015.
