Permanent Deputy Prime Minister Nguyen Sinh Hung and his Lao counterpart Somsavad Lengsavad have agreed to promote investment cooperation in hydro-electricity, mineral exploitation and industrial crops.
At a reception in Ha Noi on September 9, Deputy PM Hung said that Viet Nam and Laos enjoy a special relationship and a multi-faceted cooperation which have contributed to the two countries’ economic growth and political stability.
To bring two-way trade value between Viet Nam and Laos to 1 billion USD by 2010 and 2 billion USD five years after that, the two nations should finalise tariff preferential policies, the Vietnamese deputy PM said.
