SG, Vietnam boost cooperation in new and emerging sectors

Amongst sectors where the two countries will collaborate include energy connectivity.

Singapore and Vietnam have expressed plans to collaborate on new and emerging areas such as energy connectivity, sustainability and digital innovation.

Apart from these areas, the two countries have also made progress in education, finance, information technology and telecommunications, infrastructure, investment, tourism, trade and services, and transport.

“Singapore and Vietnam share strong and substantive trade and investment ties. With Vietnam’s transition to a green and digital economy, Singapore can be a partner to Vietnam in its next bound of growth. Singapore companies can build on the strong foundation and partnerships with Vietnam to capture opportunities in these new areas,” Second Minister for Trade and Industry, Tan See Leng, said in the 17th Singapore-Vietnam Connectivity Ministerial Meeting (CMM) held in Hanoi, Vietnam.

Tan co-chaired this year’s CMM and led discussions about further collaboration with Vietnam, together with his counterpart, Vietnam Minister of Planning and Investment H.E. Nguyen Chi Dzung.

Meanwhile, the ministers also witnessed the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between Singapore’s Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*STAR), and Vietnam’s National Innovation Center (NIC) on the sidelines of the CMM.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
