Vietnamese Deputy Minister of Trade and Industry Nguyen Cam Tu took part in the third regional meeting on Aid for Trade for Asia and the Pacific in Jakarta, Indonesia.
Addressing the conference on June 14, Deputy Minister Tu said the gathering was a good opportunity for countries to assess the efficiency of trade assistance in the Asia-Pacific region and share experiences in accessing and distributing aid for trade.
Vietnam highly valued the role of trade assistance in its development process, said the deputy minister, adding that the nation had become a developing nation with average income levels since this year.
This achievement was attributable to the important role of the international community’s trade assistance programmes for Vietnam, he said.
Many important trade assistance programmes were being carried out in the country, such as the Mekong-sub region economic cooperation programmes sponsored by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) and the EU-Vietnam Multilateral Trade Assistance Project.
The conference focused on discussing successful experiences in trade liberalisation and economic growth and the role of present and future aid for trade initiatives./.
