Japan will channel the ODA capital into major infrastructure projects including the Da Nang-Quang Ngai expressway and Haiphong’s Lach Huyen port.
At the notes exchange ceremony, Minister Vinh stressed the growing cooperation between Vietnam and Japan.
Projects with investments from Japan have produced effective results for Vietnam’s socio-economic development so far, he added.
