NA Chairman Hue appreciated Shanghai's outstanding achievements in socio-economic development in recent years, emphasising that Shanghai is a pathfinder and an incubator for piloting many of China's new reforms, especially in trade, finance, investment attraction, innovation, science and high technology.
Shanghai's success in building the Pudong New Area and the Pilot Free Trade Zone (FTZ) not only directly contributes to China’s development, but also brings useful reference for many countries, including Vietnam, he stated.
