Standard Chartered Bank
Vietnam launched Thursday its “Taiwan Desk” service, which aims to meet the needs of the Taiwanese business community in
Vietnam.
The service will be co-managed by Standard Chartered Bank Taiwan, which will help Taiwanese clients with the lender’s wholesale banking products and services.
The opening of the desk is supported by the growing trade between Vietnam and Taiwan and the large presence of more than 3,000 Taiwanese firms in the country, the British lender said.
Helen Hui, managing director and head of Origination and Client Coverage Wholesale Banking for Standard Chartered Bank Taiwan, half of the bank’s clients in Taiwan have been doing business in Vietnam.
Workshop to seek ways to develop over-land tourism
An international workshop on the development of over-land tourism in Vietnam took place in central Da Nang city on August 7 with recommendations to attract more international visitors topping the agenda.
Participants to the workshop proposed that the government enact incentive policies for the development of caravan tourism with top priority being given to legal documents on the organisation and management of means of road transport driven by foreign tourists to Vietnam.
The delegates, including representatives from countries along the East-West economic corridor including Thailand, Laos and Myanmar, said that the government should speed up the tempo of construction and upgrading of the transport infrastructure and roads linking international border gates to the country’s hubs.
Further efforts should be made to increase the coordination between Vietnam and neighbouring countries to create the most favourable conditions for tourists on trans-Vietnam routes, the East-West corridor, as well as the one economic belt and two corridors to the North.
Vietnam borders China to the North, Laos and Cambodia to the West, having a long land border of 4,550 km. The Southeast Asian nation now boasts 25 border provinces from the North to the South and around 100 international, principal and auxiliary border gates. Those are seen as an advantage for Vietnam to integrate into the region and develop tourism from ASEAN member nations in particular and the world in general.
