The US compliments Vietnam on stablizing business activities
10:08, 2014/06/13
The US praised Vietnam for stabilising orders in industrial parks and export processing zones as businesses resumed their normal operations after disturbances by rioters in response to China’s actions in the East Sea.
 
This view was shared by representatives from the Board of the Emergency Committee for American Trade (ECAT) at a meeting with Vietnamese ambassador to the US Nguyen Quoc Cuong on June 11.
Addressing the annual ECAT conference, ambassador Cuong highlighted progress at the meeting of Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) chief negotiators in Ho Chi Minh City and the TPP ministerial meeting held in May in Singapore.
Cuong called on continued, support of US businesses to accelerate and conclude negotiations.
The Vietnamese diplomat also mentioned tension in the East Sea after China’s illegal positioning of drilling rig Haiyang Shiyou-981 in Vietnam’s exclusive economic zone and its provocative acts of deploying escort vessels in the area.
US business representatives voiced deep concern over the East Sea tension, in particular the interruption of trade activities. They expressed hope that concerned parties will take the necessary steps to ease tension in the region.
They also hailed the Vietnamese Government’s measures in ensuring security and safety of property and interests of individuals and foreign organizations and businesses in Vietnam.
