Receiving Chairman of Sunwah Group Jonathan Choi, the top legislator spoke highly of the group's US$5-billion investment in Việt Nam, and welcomed the group to increase its presence in the country, especially at industrial parks in Lào Cai Province.
According to Huệ, transport connectivity between Vietnamese localities and Yunnan province, including the Lào Cai-Hà Nội-Hải Phòng route, has a strategic role for both nations.
Việt Nam’s northern provinces and Yunnan boast huge potential to work together in construction of cross-border bridges and smart border gates as well as in enhancing trade exchange via official channels, he said, expressing his hope that Sunwah will promote cooperation between Vietnamese and Chinese localities and study to bolster trilateral cooperation in the transfer of advanced technologies to improve capacity to connect value chains.
Choi, for his part, said the group wants to expand investment in infrastructure development, science-technology and hi-tech sectors in Việt Nam.
It is building an innovation centre at the Việt Nam National University, Hà Nội, and co-operating with the National Innovation Centre to develop another one, he said, stressing the group also wishes to cooperate with Vietnamese northern localities, especially Lào Cai.
