The two sides agreed to continue exploring cooperation in several priority areas, including the establishment of an internationally accredited UAV testing, training and certification center; development of an unmanned traffic management (UTM) platform and UAV monitoring system to support government oversight; implementation of workforce training and technology transfer programs and promotion of UAV research and application in priority sectors; and development of an integrated complex for UAV research, manufacturing, assembly, testing and application in Tay Ninh.

To advance the proposed cooperation, the provincial Department of Science and Technology has been assigned to coordinate with DTONIC VINA in refining investment proposals and advising the provincial People's Committee on specific implementation plans in line with legal regulations and the province's development strategy.

The Tay Ninh Economic Zone Authority and relevant agencies will also study investment incentives and provide information on planning, infrastructure, land availability and other necessary conditions to support the company in conducting site surveys and exploring investment opportunities in the province.

Hoa urged DTONIC VINA to continue working closely with the Department of Science and Technology to develop detailed proposals on technology solutions, investment models, support requirements and implementation roadmaps for consideration by the provincial authorities.
