South-South Cooperation takes centre stage in HCM City
(VOV) - On November 18, development experts, policy specialists, government officials and business representatives of Africa and Vietnam gathered at a workshop in Ho Chi Minh City to focus on ways to enhance South-South Cooperation (SSC).
“The evolving economies and expertise of all of the countries participating allow for the exchange of advanced knowledge they all agreed, but first there needs to be a common language to facilitate communication.
There was general agreement that the French language would be the best language to use to amplify communication for this purpose as most of the members from African countries speak French with a high degree of fluency.
Representatives of roughly 100 businesses from the Mekong Delta, primarily engaged in agriculture and construction, were in attendance at the forum sponsored by the Vietnam Chamber of Commerce and Industry (VCCI) in collaboration with the International Trade Centre.
