The provincial People’s Committee organized a ceremony on December 1 to kick of the two-day "Thai Binh Homecoming Day" program, and the Red River Delta International Agriculture Fair, with the participation of former President of the RoK Lee Myung Bak, RoK Ambassador Choi Young Sam, and former Vietnamese President Truong Tan Sang, among others.
In his remarks, Chairman of the People’s Committee Nguyen Khac Than briefed the participants on Thai Binh’s traditional culture, saying the events are set to facilitate the access of Korean firms and investors to the Vietnamese market and Thai Binh as well, and create an opportunity for domestic enterprises expand their partnership networks, and promote their products.
Thai Binh hopes for stronger relations between the two countries and peoples, and more opportunities for cultural exchanges between the two sides, he continued.
This is the first time Thai Binh has organized such important events to honor traditional cultural values of the RoK and Vietnam, and the province in particular.
Notably, the fair, part of the national trade promotion program 2023, features more than 400 booths by over 220 domestic and foreign businesses, of them about half from the RoK.
