RoK Ambassador to Vietnam Lee Hyuk said the RoK has become Vietnam’s largest foreign investor, second largest official development assistance (ODA) supplier and third biggest trade partner.

Meanwhile, Vietnam is the RoK’s fourth largest trade partner, he said, noting that it is time for the two countries to propel their cooperation.

Nguyen Trung Quynh, deputy head of the park’s management board, briefed participants on investment situation in the area as well as incentives for businesses operating in the park.

On this occasion, the board handed over investment licenses to two projects, including one invested by the RoK, raising the total number of projects in the park to 80 with total registered capital of VND 61.3 trillion (USD 2.7 billion).

The Hoa Lac High-Tech Park now accommodates many Korean businesses like Vietnam-Korea Medical Joint Venture, SDS Company and DT&C Co., Ltd.
