Deputy Minister of Planning and Investment Nguyen Van Trung is on a two-day working visit to Malaysia to learn from the country’s experience in investment attraction and to boost bilateral cooperation in this field.

He held a working session on October 2 with Malaysian Investment and Development Agency (MIDA) Executive Ahmad Khairuddin Abdul Rahim, head of the MIDA delegation.

In the meeting, the two sides introduced their respective models for planning and developing industrial and economic zones.

They also studied each other’s policies and coordination mechanisms between state agencies that support industrial zones, particularly in the fields of land management, natural resources, the environment, investment, trade, export, tax and customs.

MIDA shared their experience in attracting foreign direct investment to Malaysian industrial zones, particularly in high-tech zones, green production industries and a skilled workforce.

During the trip, the Vietnamese delegation also visited Pulau Indah industrial zone in Selangor state, a complex that comprises an industrial zone, trade centres and residential buildings.-VNA
