Belarus Prime Minister explores cooperation opportunities in Hung Yen
Hung Yen always encourages and creates favourable conditions for Belarusian investors to explore opportunities and invest in the province in accordance with Vietnam's laws and international practices, Secretary of the provincial Party Commitee Nguyen Huu Nghia said at a working session with Belarusian Prime Minister Roman Golovchenko on December 7.
The Belarusian PM paid a working visit to the northern province as part of his official visit to Vietnam.
The official informed his guest that Hung Yen is home to 540 foreign-invested projects valued at US$6.8 billion, including two joint ventures with Belarusian partners. One project operates in manufacturing and assembling trucks and special-purpose automobiles with a registered investment capital of US$32.1 million and another one involves agricultural production and processing, food, beverages and dairy products capitalised at US$18 million.
For his part, the Belarusian government leader said Belarus has a lot of experience in waste treatment and the recycling of plastics and old tires, and it wants to cooperate with Hung Yen in this field.
He expressed his hope that in the coming time, Hung Yen will facilitate the expansion of the Maz Asia auto manufacturing and assembly plant and the early implementation of a project on agricultural production and processing.
Before the meeting with the provincial leader, PM Golovchenko visited the Maz Asia Joint Stock Company and planted trees on the premises of Au Viet Food Import-Export and Processing JSC in Chinh Nghia commune, Kim Dong district.
