He highly appreciated Jadestone Energy's commitment to invest and expand production, and asked the firm to coordinate closely with the Ministry of Industry and Trade and the Vietnam Oil and Gas Group (PetroVietnam) to soon complete necessary procedures for its investment projects.
For his part, Blakeley thanked the Government, ministries and sectors of Vietnam for their support for his firm, adding that Vietnam’s preferential policies for attracting investment, and improvements of business environment have encouraged international investors to expand their operation in the country.
