Vietnam-Singapore economic connectivity strengthened

The Vietnam-Singapore Economic Connectivity Agreement was signed in 2005, focusing on links in finance, education and training, transport, information-technology and communications, investment, trade, and services.

At this year’s conference, both sides discussed measures to expand cooperation with a way that maximises the potential and accords with the advantages of each nation most effectively.  

They reviewed the achievements recorded in six cooperative fields since the 8^th meeting and devised new measures to strengthen bilateral economic relations.

Under the framework of the original agreement, Vietnam has affirmed its stance and concern over economic cooperation with Singapore, suggesting appropriate initiatives for further consideration, and encouraging businesses to intensify their investment in Vietnam for the mutual benefit of both nations.

The annual conference aims to review progress made on the agreement’s implementation and to formulate future plans for action.
