The city hopes to boost cooperation with Aichi prefecture in economics, trading, investment, culture and people-to-people diplomacy, thus luring more investment from the Japanese industrial hub to Ho Chi Minh City, particularly in transport, storage, logistics and high-tech industrial production.

In Nagano prefecture, the delegation wants to learn the locality’s experience in addressing environmental issues, water pollution and protecting water resources.

During their stay in Hokkaido prefecture, they will visit local smart-agriculture models and explore cooperation opportunities in hi-tech agriculture, as well as promoting tourism development and trade exchanges between HCM City and Hokkaido.
