Vivie Wei Discusses Vietnam-China Economic Cooperation on CGTN’s “DIALOGUE”

On August 20, 2024, Vivie Wei, our Country Director for Vietnam at Dezan Shira & Associates, appeared on CGTN’s “DIALOGUE” to discuss the strengthening of Vietnam-China economic ties. This comes on the heels of Vietnamese leader To Lam’s visit to China, marking a significant step towards deeper bilateral cooperation.

During the program, Vivie emphasized the strategic importance of the proposed railway links between the two countries, which are expected to enhance logistics, boost cross-border e-commerce, and streamline the export of perishable goods. “This modern transportation infrastructure is crucial to regional connectivity and economic integration,” Vivie noted.

Vivie also addressed the growing interest of Chinese investors in Vietnam, particularly in emerging sectors such as the digital economy and green energy. She noted the influx of Chinese energy companies into Vietnam, which is prompting the Vietnamese government to streamline bidding procedures and optimize the integration of renewable energy projects. Additionally, prominent Chinese companies like ZTE, and Huawei are increasingly looking to expand their operations in Vietnam, further strengthening the economic ties between the two nations.
