and technological cooperation between Vietnam and Japan on February 25.
Speaking at a forum on environmental and technological cooperation between Vietnam and Japan on February 25, Hai stressed the importance of low-waste technology cooperation and transfer between the two countries.
He said that Vietnam has been facing significant challenges from increasing levels of industrial waste and water pollution. Within the recent decade, Vietnam was impacted by 8-10 storms each year, which caused serious damage to infrastructure and the environment.
According to Japanese Ambassador to Vietnam, Tanizaki Yasuaki, Vietnam is one of the countries likely to be most affected by global warming, which brings increases of heavy rainfall and salt contamination through rising sea levels, seriously constraining agricultural production, especially in the Mekong Delta region.
As a result, Vietnam should implement policies to reduce emissions.
On the occasion, Tanizaki Yasuaki undertook that Japan would transfer low-waste technology as well as its experience on environmental protection to Vietnam by cooperation projects between the two countries./.
