Pham Duc Hien, Vice Director of the provincial Department of Agriculture and Rural Development, made the statement at a meeting on September 9 to review three technical projects on rural development and sustainable forest management. This is also part of the activities to mark the 40th anniversary of the bilateral diplomatic relations.
The total investment capital of the projects, started in 2010, is over 312 billion VND (14.6 million USD), with 95.7 percent of capital from the Japanese Government.
