Dong Nai provincial authorities and the region of Bratagne signed an economic cooperative memorandum between both sides.

The region of Bretagne will be a strategic partner of Dong Nai province in the future.

    Following the memorandum, Bretagne will assist Vietnam, particularly Dong Nai province in gathering and organizing farmers into the associations for agricultural cooperation so that they can share experience and expand productive capacity to increase profits but keep ensuring their product quality and protecting their local environment.
