AmCham promotes co-operation with Dong Nai

A delegation from the American Chamber of Commerce (AmCham) in Viet Nam held a working session on Tuesday with authorities in the southern province of Dong Nai.

The session was part of the two sides' efforts to expand co-operation in foreign investment, export promotion and high-quality human resources training.

Provincial Department of Planning and Investment Director Bo Ngoc Thu said that the locality wanted foreign investors, including US businesses, to invest in areas such as high-tech industries, support industries, high-tech farming and breeding projects, safe food processing and infrastructure building.

AmCham Viet Nam President Mark Gillin said his association was seeking co-operation with Viet Nam, particularly Dong Nai Province, to produce garment accessories, with AmCham Hong Kong expressing its intention to invest about US$1 billion in the sector in Viet Nam.

Officials from several US businesses such as Intel and Walmart wanted to increase co-operation with the province in a number of areas, especially training human resources for high-tech industries.
