The group wishes to expand its cooperative activities in Vietnam beyond production, technology transfer, and infrastructure development to improving capabilities and skills of Vietnamese workers so to enable them to master novel technologies in the future, he said.
Liem said the working visit by the MHI’s executives shows the group’s willingness and interests in investments in the city’s development efforts.
HCM City is willing to cooperate with MHI in not only urban infrastructure development but also waste treatment – the issue that is challenging the city during its urban development process, he said.
He suggested MHI and municipal agencies soon discuss cooperation contents in detail in the field and work out realistic projects with high efficiency, especially when they plan to use the public-private partnership model for the projects.-VNA
