Vietnam's focus on e-commerce development and digital transformation was emphasized by Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh, urging government agencies and localities to accelerate digitization and administrative procedures. Meanwhile, Hydrogen de France (HDF Energy) is actively collaborating with Vietnam on green hydrogen projects, including converting diesel-fueled locomotives to hydrogen-powered ones to align with Vietnam's emissions reduction strategy. This partnership extends to power generation projects with Petrovietnam Technical Services Corporation, aiming to leverage renewable energy sources and hydrogen gas. Moreover, Vietnam's tra fish exports to CPTPP nations have seen a positive growth, reaching 114 million USD by mid-June, with major buyers like Mexico and Japan. The Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP) has been instrumental in boosting Vietnamese fisheries exports, providing opportunities for market expansion and integration into global supply chains.
