The garment and textile industries in Thailand and Viet Nam should
strengthen co-operation to improve competitiveness and exploit the ASEAN
market, delegates said at a meeting held in HCM City yesterday.
Local and offshore demand for emerging East Asia''s local currency bonds
is rising again and should continue given the strong growth prospects
in the region.
With the ASEAN Economic Community just around the corner, Thailand and
Viet Nam can further expand their collaboration and maximise the
potential for bilateral trade, Thai officials have said.
