Vietnam expects economic cooperation to become a major pillar in the country’s relations with the three countries on the basis of equality and mutual benefit, stated Mr. Binh in an online meeting with leaders of the Japan Bank for International Cooperation (JBIC), the US International Development Finance Corporation (DFC), and the Export Finance Australia (EFA) on October 30.

According to Mr. Binh, Vietnam remains steadfast in perfecting the legal framework and the business environment to attract investment capital from the private sector and abroad in infrastructure development.
Vietnam is willing to create favorable conditions for enterprises with high credibility and technological capabilities from the US, Japan and Australia to invest in high quality and sustainable infrastructure projects in the country, he noted.
Mr. Binh expected JBIC, DFC and EFA to continue providing financial support for major infrastructure projects and the development of supply chains in Vietnam, as well as serving as bridges between Vietnamese enterprises and those in the three countries in these fields.
