A seminar on export and import activities of FDI businesses was held by the Ministry of Industry and Trade (MoIT) on July, in Ho Chi Minh city (HCMC). Figures from the ministry’s Import-Export Bureau showed that in the first half of 2014, export turnover from the FDI sector reached more than USD43.7 billion, 61.4% of the country’s total export turnover, or a 17.1% rise on the same period last year. During the period, imports for the sector amounted to nearly USD40 billion, 57.4% of the country’s total and up 10.7% on a year earlier. MOIT Deputy Minister Tran Tuan Anh said that in spite of difficulties facing the economy, FDI businesses strived to intensify production and exports, to invest in expanding markets and seek new business opportunities. Vietnam’s exports in the rest of the year are forecast to meet big challenges due to sluggish improvement of the world economy and slow growth of big economies such as the US, EU and Japan. Vietnamese commodities will face narrowed output markets and increasing protectionist policies from importers. Currently, the Vietnamese government and relevant agencies are making efforts to intensify negotiations with other countries to continue to expand the market../ |
