On March 23, in Hanoi, during a reception for a delegation of over 40 businesses from the US-ASEAN Business Council (USABC), NA Chairman Vuong Dinh Hue said their working trip is a vivid demonstration of the development of Vietnam-US ties on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of bilateral comprehensive partnership this year.
Two-way trade hit a record 123 billion USD last year, making Vietnam one of the eight biggest trade partners of the US.
NA Chairman Hue said Vietnam will continue listening to feedback from the business community and creating favourable conditions for them to do business successfully in the country.
A USABC representative said the US enterprises hold high trust in Vietnam’s development prospects in the future and commit to doing long-term business in health care, green growth, renewable energy in tandem with environment protection.
They also offered suggestions related to digital transformation, renewable energy, taxation, bidding, logistics and health care, among others.
