With the hope that the US will enter the list of the top 10 largest investors in Vietnam, Quang recommended US businesses branch out larger-scale projects, helping Vietnam get access to investment sources as well as green and sustainable financial funds.
He also asked firms of both sides to contribute their voice in the call for the recognition of Vietnam’s market economy status, which he called as important to bolstering the economic-trade-investment relations between the two nations into an effective, equal, healthy and sustainable fashion.

Meanwhile, Chairman of the American Chamber of Commerce in Vietnam (AmCham Vietnam) John Rockhold stressed the recent upgrade of the bilateral ties provided a wonderful opportunity for the bilateral cooperation to complete policies and business environment to attract new investors for development.
Cooperation progress in key areas mentioned at the summit will help fine-tune business environment and enhance the role of the private sector, helping ensure socio-economic development and foster prosperity in Vietnam, he added.
Senior Director of AmCham’s Southeast Asia John Goyer underscored that the business associations of both sides are responsible for elevating the robust economic ties into a new height and joining hands with the two Governments to overcome existing challenges.
