Speaking at the event, Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Pham Binh Minh congratulated Samsung Electronics Vietnam in particular and Samsung Vietnam in general on their business results over the past decade.

He said Samsung’s success in Vietnam is also the success of the country’s reform policy and reflects the improvement in investment environment in the Southeast Asian nation.
Vietnam encourages businesses from the Republic of Korea in general and Samsung in particular to expand production in the country, he added.

The Deputy PM suggested that the RoK businesses should transfer technology, pay attention to and ensure interests of workers, while supporting Vietnamese enterprises to become partners in the global value chain and raise the localisation rate.

With total registered capital of 59 billion USD, RoK businesses have played an active role in Vietnam’s key economic sectors, including electronics, energy, automobile, garment-textile and construction, among other.
