Party Secretary Trong affirmed that Vietnam attaches importance to its economic, trade and investment ties with China, and creates favourable conditions for businesses of both countries to strengthen their cooperation for the development of each nation as well as the bilateral relationship. 
The Vietnamese Party leader said Vietnam and China are the largest trade partners of each other, noting that as an emerging market with a population of 92 million and an annual average growth rate of 6-7 percent, Vietnam is considered one of the most potential and attractive markets in terms of foreign investment attraction. 
The General Secretary welcomed Chinese firms investing in Vietnam with projects using advanced and environmentally-friendly technologies, with a priority given to projects in the fields of agriculture, high technology, supporting industry, clean and renewable energy, technological transfer and high-quality human resource development. 
He hoped that the two countries’ enterprises will make more contributions to the development of increasingly balanced and healthy bilateral trade as well as promoting tourism to enhance mutual understanding and friendship between the Vietnamese and Chinese people. 
General Secretary hoped that Chinese businesses would improve the efficiency of cooperation with Vietnamese partners for mutual benefits in the future. 
Speaking at the event, Vice Governor of Zhejiang province Liang Liming, expressed her hope that the meeting will help promote partnerships among Chinese and Vietnamese enterprises and localities in various fields such as high technology, logistics, agricultural production, processing and export while boosting the friendship and exchanges between the two countries’ peoples, especially young generations.

She noted that as many as 26 Vietnamese firms have so far invested in Zhejiang while Zhejiang businesses have poured more than 1.6 billion USD in more than 180 projects in Vietnam.
