The province mainly shipped its timber products to the US, the Republic of Korea (RoK), Japan, Canada, China and Australia.
Exports to the RoK and Japan significantly expanded owing to the duty reduction from the free trade agreements between Vietnam and the two countries.
Experts have bright forecasts for domestic timber exports by the end of this year, particularly after Vietnam signs the Trans-Pacific Partnership agreement and a free trade agreement with the European Union.-VNA
