The PM affirmed the Vietnamese government will reform administrative procedures to create the best possible conditions for investors, including Malaysian investors, and said potential for cooperation between the two countries remains big.
Minister Mustapa Mohamad agreed that Vietnam has many opportunities for investment and business, adding that many business joint ventures between Malaysia and Vietnam are operative effectively.
He said he is being accompanied by 40 business representatives who came to explore opportunities for investment.
