Vietnam is calling on hi-tech firms from Japan to invest in Hanoi-based Hoa Lac Hi-tech Park, the Government leader said, vowing to provide them with the best incentives.

The Vietnamese Government pays special heed to developing the support industry and will create optimal conditions for Japanese businesses operating in this field, affirmed the PM.

Lauding the Vietnam-Japan University project, PM Phuc said the government will approve the school’s regulations as soon as possible in order to facilitate its operation.

He said he believes that the university will become one of the most prestigious universities in Vietnam, proving high-quality human resources for the country’s development.

For his part, Takebe stressed the role of support industry as a foundation for major firms to invest in. He promised to call on Japanese businesses to increase investment in this field in Vietnam.

Meanwhile, S. Nagamori noted his wish that the Vietnamese Government will create favourable conditions for his corporation to expand investment in the capital city of Hanoi.
