Japan helps Viet Nam boost competitiveness

Japan will help Viet Nam to promote fair competition in the country's business market through a JPY140 million (US$1.75 million) project which started this week.

The four-year project, signed between the Japan International Co-operation Agency (JICA) and Viet Nam Competition Authority (VCA), will help the VCA to amend the Competition Law to suit increasing economic activities, strengthen investigations, and promote advocacy of laws and policies in Viet Nam.

These goals will be achieved through several activities, including training courses for VCA investigators and dissemination campaigns for Government members, enterprises, consumers and academics.
