Governor of Chungcheongnam Province - Mr. Kim Tae Heum expressed his gratitude for the warm reception by Hue City’s leaders, noting that this occasion also serves as an opportunity to promote Chungcheongnam enterprises’ products in Vietnam. He hoped that Hue City will continue to be a key partner of Chungcheongnam, and that this visit will open new opportunities for cooperation and exchange between the two localities.
To advance sustainable development and mutual prosperity, the leaders of both sides agreed to sign a Memorandum of Cooperation.
