Liem said Ho Chi Minh City has organised high-level visits and trade promotion events with Argentinean provinces and cities over the past years, adding that the city’s leaders will pay a working trip to the South American country to boost ties with its localities. 

He believed that both sides will have many opportunities to penetrate each other’s market as well as intensify joint work in people-to-people diplomacy, culture and sports, contributing to the enhancement of Vietnam – Argentina ties. 

Vice Governor of Entre Rios province Bahl Adan Humberto, head of the delegation, introduced the potential and locations of the three provinces, saying that they have strengths in agricultural production such as nuts, dairy products, fruits, fowls, beef and pork. 

He expressed the wish to seek cooperation opportunities with Vietnamese firms, especially in farm produce, economy, tourism and culture. 

Leaders of the three provinces pledged to provide optimal support for Ho Chi Minh City businesses to enter the Argentinean market, and serve as a bridge connecting Ho Chi Minh City firms with nearby markets such as Bolivia, Paraguay, Uruguay and Chile.
