The government leader praised the development of the strategic partnership between the two countries in recent years, particularly in politics, defence, international co-operation, investment, trade, and ODA. The free trade agreement between the two countries will promote bilateral co-operation in economics, trade, investment, and labour.
Ambassador Huyk said many South Korean businesses were keen to invest in Vietnam in energy, transport, and finance. He hoped two-way trade will grow rapidly to surpass the 70 billion USD target by 2020.
