During meetings and working sessions with parliamentarians and representatives of agencies under the Mexican state’s government, the diplomat briefed the hosts on Vietnam’s economic, trade and investment achievements over its 36-year renewal, highlighting remarkable strides in the export of ago-forestry-aquaculture products.
He also spotlighted the strong development of the bilateral relations, affirming that two-way trade between Vietnam and Mexico will continue to grow strongly as both nations are members of the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP).
The ambassador suggested parliamentarians, leaders of ministries and sectors and scholars of Oaxaca to work with the Vietnamese side to establish cooperation mechanisms and sign technical agreements in order to create favourable conditions for export and import activities of the two countries.

In a meeting with the deputy minister of agriculture and rural development of Oaxaca, Flavio Aragón Cuevas, the Vietnamese diplomat proposed the two sides enhance sharing of experience in farming and processing aquatic products as well as in post-harvest technology in order to increase added value of agricultural products.
Cuevas said he will direct authorised agencies to study the potential for agricultural cooperation between the two countries, especially on the import of small-sized agricultural machines – the products that Vietnam has strength.
Nam also emphasised the great potential for the two sides in tourism cooperation in his meeting with Oaxaca’s deputy minister of tourism Fernanda Schmidt Ruiz.
For her part, Ruiz said the two sides need to strengthen the exchange of information on tourism products, support each other in organising tourism promotion programmes, encourage enterprises to participate in international tourism fairs organised by each side, and boost tourism connection among their localities.
