Our aim is to facilitate trade, investment and collaboration that will not only benefit our businesses, but also contribute significantly to the growth and prosperity of our countries.”
Arlindo Duarte argued that the chamber's vision is centered on the belief in the potential for cooperation between Mozambique and Vietnam. “We will seek to leverage our collective strengths, promote bilateral trade and unlock opportunities for our members.

Meanwhile, we request that the Mozambican government facilitate construction land and visas for workers and investors from Vietnam.” (RM)
