The two leaders discussed economic collaborations and exchanges between Taiwan and Vietnam as well as Vietnam’s vision in the chairmanship year 2020. Mr Sonny Chen Hsiao - Cheng, Secretary of TECO in HCMC also took part in the meeting.
Mr. Tseng expressed his impression on the great efforts made by the solidarity of Vietnam’s government and the people in the COVID-19 campaign. He also showed his understanding about the impacts of the outbreak on the international exchanges and collaboration amongst ASEAN members in Vietnam’s ASEAN chairmanship year 2020.
Talking about the relationship between Taiwan and Vietnam, he hoped that the globally recognized strengths of Taiwan small and medium-sized businesses could effectively be applied in Vietnam. Two fundamental features of those businesses to be so successful were making the most of human resources and improving products’ quality. With those advantages, Mr. Tseng hoped for more opportunities to support Vietnam in training Vietnam labour force. The two leaders also addressed water security in the Mekong Delta with the purpose of developing sustainability in this region. Both showed interest in conducting long-term collaborative research on the issue.
Mr. Tseng shared that a skilled labour force was necessary for further foreign investment in the future, learning from the experience of Taiwan’s successful industrialization. With the economic achievements Vietnam has attained so far and the role as a chairman country in 2020, he believed Vietnam can reach an agreement with other ASEAN members on the East Sea issue to ensure peace, solidarity, security and prosperity in the region.
