Hanoi (VNA) Environmental protection must be the top priority of businesses, Deputy Prime Minister Trinh Dinh Dung said at a reception on July 6 for General Director of Doosan Vina in Vietnam Jung Yeon In.

He said Vietnam welcomes and creates optimal conditions for foreign firms to do business in the country. However, he noted that overseas firms need to pay attention to protecting the environment and fully implementing commitments and regulations in the field.

The Deputy PM also urged foreign companies to ensure labour safety, take good care of workers, carry out humanitarian and charity programmes, and contribute to Vietnam’s social welfare policies.

He hailed Doosan Vina’s investment in Vietnam, which helps increase the rate of locally-produced components and fuel the development of some industrial sectors, including electricity.

Director General Jung Yeon In reiterated his group’s motto of observing the environmental commitments, standards and regulations in Vietnam.

It also has strict criteria on labour safety and care for workers, he added.

He expressed his wish to cooperate with Vietnamese partners to develop mechanical engineering and increase the responsibility of the business community for social affairs and environmental protection.-VNA
