Vietnam Today

Discussions focused on long-term development orientations in Vietnam, with the business leaders putting forward specific proposals to facilitate continued investment and business expansion in the country.

During their meeting in Copenhagen on October 19 (local time), General Secretary and President To Lam and King Frederik X highlighted the expansion of bilateral economic, trade and investment cooperation.

General Secretary and President Lam stressed that looking back over the past 55 years, from standing together through difficult times, Vietnam and Denmark have built deep mutual trust, paving the way for a new horizon of cooperation.

The top Vietnamese leader’s visit to Denmark is expected to strengthen political trust, set long-term cooperation priorities and further deepen bilateral relations. It also offers an opportunity to promote economic, trade and investment ties, as well as cooperation in science-technology and innovation, in line with the development priorities and needs of both countries.

The government is conducting comprehensive reviews across real estate, land management, petroleum, electricity, pharmaceuticals, medical devices, and agriculture to eliminate unwarranted markups, cut intermediary layers, and raise regulatory oversight efficiency.

At their talks in Hanoi on October 18, Prime Minister Le Minh Hung and his Liechtenstein counterpart Brigitte Haas pledged to step up cooperation, tap opportunities from new agreements.
