Mr. Pham Van Hoa - Director of Nghe An Department of Industry and Trade said: On the basis of the Vietnam - Japan Economic Partnership Agreement (VJEPA), the ASEAN - Japan Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (AJCEP) and recently the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (RCEP) between ASEAN and 6 partners that have FTAs with ASEAN, namely China, Korea, Japan, India, Australia and New Zealand, the trade relations between Nghe An province and Japan in recent times have made progress in both turnover and product structure. 2023 is the 50th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between Vietnam and Japan. In addition, Nghe An province also has "twinned" relations with a number of Japanese provinces (JiFu), Vinh city (Nghe An) and Kasumigaura (Ibaraki province, Japan) ... which will further create the premise for comprehensive cooperation between the two sides.
Currently in Nghe An with about 20 export enterprises (out of a total of 360 import-export enterprises in the area, including 9 FDI enterprises), will create trust in cooperative relations with Japanese enterprises. Export turnover between Nghe An and Japan has continuously increased in terms of turnover, products, and number of enterprises in recent times.
