Hanoi , March 12 (VNA) – A seminar on Japanese and other Asian economies was held in Hanoi on March 12 to help Vietnamese researchers and businesspeople explore experiences in economic development.
Knowledge gained from Asian countries will contribute to forming Vietnam’s polices and strategies on economic development, said Dr. Vo Dai Luoc, General Director of the Vietnam Asia-Pacific Economic Centre (VAPEC), which organised the event.
Professors Harada Yutaka and Tran Van Tho from Japan ’s Waseda University presented their scientific reports on Japan ’s future economy and the country’s impacts on other Asian nations in the field of economics, as well as science and technology.
Vietnam should grasp new opportunities from Japan and improve the competitiveness of its industries before free trade agreements are fully implemented, said Tho.
The country should take into account FDI policies as well as improving infrastructure and administrative reform procedures in other Asian countries, added the professor./.
