Can Tho expands collaboration with India

India and the Cuu Long (Mekong) Delta City of Can Tho are looking to step-up collaboration in garments and textiles, tourism, pharmaceuticals and high-technology agriculture.

The focus on these four sectors was determined during a working session between Chairman of the city's People's Committee Le Hung Dung and India's Ambassador to Viet Nam Shrimati Preeti Saran on Monday.

Saran said India admires the high potential for development in the region's tourism and high-tech agriculture, especially its Meeting, Incentive, Convention, and Exhibition (MICE) model. She pledged to act as a bridge, introducing India's scientific achievements in agriculture and businesses to the delta.

In return, the chairman said the city considers India a strategic partner and a potential market.
