At the meeting, leaders from the Ministries of Finance, Public Security, Foreign Affairs, Science and Technology, and Industry and Trade, along with representatives of localities expected to host Korean-invested projects, said that the proposed projects, projected to generate thousands of direct and indirect jobs and involve substantial investment, will help advance economic cooperation between Vietnam and the RoK.

Deputy PM Dung urged relevant ministries, agencies, and localities to agree on the importance of the projects and to review and clarify the legal grounds needed to support their effective implementation.

He tasked ministries and sectors with stepping up engagement with businesses to reach preliminary agreements on key commitments, including technology transfer, establishment of research and development (R&D) centers in Vietnam, workforce training, and support mechanisms.

For matters already delegated and decentralized, local authorities must act swiftly to resolve investment bottlenecks, making it easier for businesses to implement their projects effectively, thus bringing sustainable interests, he said.
