Strengthening environmental protection tie between Vietnam and RoK

The Republic of Korea (RoK) will continue to support Vietnam in building and implementing policies on environmental protection, green growth, especially in pollution and waste control, development of environmental industry and technology, bio-diversity conservation and capacity building.

The statement was made by the RoK Minister of Environment Yoon Seong Kyo at the 11th Vietnam-RoK Environment Ministers Meeting held in HCM City on October 27.
 


During the event, Vietnamese Minister of Natural Resources and Environment (MONRE) Nguyen Minh Quang and his RoK counterpart said that recent development in international cooperation in this field benefitted environmental protection, climate change adaptation and green growth acceleration in Vietnam.

The same day, the Korea-Vietnam Environmental Business Forum 2014 was held on the sidelines of the meeting, offering good opportunities for environmental managers and businesses of both nations to share experiences and expand cooperation.

On this occasion, MONRE also called on local businesses to actively cooperate with their RoK counterparts to share experience and enhance capacity.
