On November 12, the Vietnamese Ambassador held a meeting with Surinamese Minister of Foreign Affairs, International Business and International Cooperation Albert Ramdi, during which Ramdin highly spoke of Vietnam’s role in the international community.

He said Suriname will support Vietnam at multilateral forums and step up the exchange of all-level delegations in the coming time, adding that the country wants to learn from Vietnam’s experience in post-harvest processing, particularly of rice and fisheries.

The Vietnamese diplomat also met with President of the Suriname Chamber of Commerce and Industry Jaynath Padarath to discuss ways to accelerate trade and expand cooperation in agriculture, fisheries and wood, as well as in the organization of training courses and exchange programs in agriculture.

Ambassador Hoa also took the occasion to talk with the Vietnamese community in the South American country, most of whom used to work as sailors on fishing boats of Suriname, the Republic of Korea and India.
