The hosts pledged to create more favourable conditions for Vietnamese to live, work and study in Salt Lake City and Utah State, and grant more scholarships to Vietnamese students there.
Representatives of nearly 80 Utah State businesses said they have planned to invest in and cooperate with Vietnam, commending guidelines and policies on foreign investment adopted by the Vietnamese Government.
Utah businesses want to choose Vietnam as a leading destination in their supply chain diversification strategy, they said, adding that a trade promotion delegation is expected to be dispatched to Vietnam in July.
On May 23, on this occasion, Ambassador Dung delivered a speech at an event held by the US Institute of Peace and the Utah Council for Citizen Diplomacy, and had meetings with leaders, professors and students of the University of Utah, the Brigham Young University and the Westminster College.
