The Vietnamese seaports sector will be actively engaged in the process of reform, competition and international integration.

This was confirmed by the Vietnam Seaports Association (VPA) at its annual meeting in the central city of Danang on August 21.

In the coming time, the VPA will propose effective measures to the government to enhance the market transparency and openness, stabilize prices, strengthen foreign relations and participate in the activities of the Asian Ports Association and the International Associations of Ports and Habors.

It will ask for consultancy advice from domestic and international experts and cooperate with relevant agencies to solve common issues related to the development of ports and marine community.

Last year’s total cargo through the VPA’s 59 ports reached more than 159 million tonnes, four percent higher than the previous year.
