Việt Nam is an active member country with a lot of initiatives and contributions in various international and regional cooperation mechanisms such as the World Trade Organisation (WTO), APEC, and Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN).
The initiatives promoting sustainable, creative and inclusive growth (including economy, finance and society) that Việt Nam has taken are to be praised, and at the same time, the initiatives with the leading role of the host country, Việt Nam, are important for APEC to speed up the process of achieving the 2020 Bogor Goal and to become a mechanism for effective trade and economic cooperation in the context of increasing protectionism.
This is the second time Việt Nam has been selected as the host of APEC events, proving that the international community has confidence in Việt Nam.
With Việt Nam’s experience in organising the previous event, along with meticulous preparation, professionalism and the launch of initiatives, which promote cooperation and linkages, Việt Nam will successfully organise APEC 2017.
Việt Nam's economy over the past few years has been through dramatic changes and I’m optimistic that with the economic reforms that the Vietnamese Government is pursuing, Việt Nam will continue to make rapid and sustainable development in the years to come.
Since Việt Nam-RoK signed a Free Trade Agreement (FTA) in 2015, the two countries have been partners, with increasing trade turnover.
Việt Nam is a potential and attractive market with numerous opportunities for foreign businesses in general and Korean enterprises in particular to boost business and investment activities in the time to come.
