CCPIT Vice President Liu Ji Gang said the number of Vietnamese exhibitors increased significantly compared to previous years, and this is expected to contribute to deepening the cooperation between Vietnam and China, and other countries in the field of chemical industry.

According to Phung Manh Ngoc, Director the Ministry of Industry and Trade’s Vietnam Chemical Agency, the domestic chemical industry has developed strongly in recent years and contributed positively to Vietnam's industry development.
