Vietnam strengthens community and business ties in South Korea

The Vice Chairman praised the association's role in enhancing bilateral economic and social cooperation and called for expanded networks involving Vietnamese entrepreneurs, experts, and intellectuals to boost Vietnam's economic and cultural development abroad. Collaborative efforts with the Korea Economic, Social and Labor Council (ESLC) aim for a memorandum of understanding signing in early 2027.
