Receiving Governor of Tochigi Prefecture Tomikazu Fukuda in Hanoi, Prime Minister Chinh said that the Japanese prefecture and Vietnamese localities have supplementary strengths and great potential for cooperation. He asked for further economic, trade and investment ties between the two sides and suggested more investment in Vietnam in fields of the prefecture’s strengths such as medical equipment, manufacturing and processing, agriculture and tourism.

The Prime Minister called on the prefecture to expand investment cooperation with not only Vinh Phuc but also other Vietnamese localities, and not only in economy but also in culture, sports, tourism, people-to-people exchange, labor cooperation, and import of agricultural and aquatic products from Vietnam.
