Vietnam and South Africa are set to ink a deal to prevent rhino poaching and the illicit trade in rhino horns.
AFP quoted an official of the wildlife trade monitoring network (TRAFFIC), saying a memorandum of understanding between South Africa, home of the largest rhino population in the world, and Vietnam, the biggest consumer market, will be signed soon.
At the launch of a report in Johannesburg on August 20, Tom Milliken, TRAFFIC's head of rhino and elephants project, announced the news and expressed hope that the MoU will make some changes in halting the illicit trade.
Mavuso Msimang, a South African official, also stressed the importance of cooperation between the two countries in an attempt to stop the export of rhino horns to Vietnam.
