The Mongolian Government has issued policies to create favourable conditions for businesses, including those from Vietnam, to invest effectively in Mongolia, said the minister.
Agreeing with the Mongolian Minister's opinions, Prime Minister Chinh assigned the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to define the contents of the aspirations of the two sides in lifting up the bilateral relationship to a new height, making it deeper, more practical and effective.
