Swiss businesses keen on developing HCMC infrastructure

Swiss businesses have expressed their wish to help Ho Chi Minh City promote its economic development, especially infrastructure development.

During a meeting with the Municipal People’s Committee Chairman Le Hoang Quan on November 17, Swiss Economic Minister Marie Gabrielle Ineichen Fleish said Vietnam is of great importance to Switzerland, in a list of priorities for development cooperation.

The President of the Swiss Chamber of Commerce in Asia, Urs Lustenberger, said Swiss businesses are quite optimistic about Vietnam as a fast growing economy with inviting prospects.

Representatives of the Swiss company ABB said it can provide experts, solutions and equipment for HCMC to address its difficulties in the fields of traffic, power, and environment.

Meanwhile, Zurich international airport wants to cooperate with HCMC in modernizing the latter’s airport system to ease traffic overload and develop the local economy. – VOV
