Deputy Prime Minister Nguyen Sinh Hung told Cuban Minister of Light Industry Jose Hernandez Bernandez yesterday that Viet Nam was ready to co-operate with Cuba in areas in which the two countrys offer complementary advantages, including education, health care and pharmaceuticals.
The two countries should further promote co-operation not only at central but also grassroots levels, Hung said.
Hung also used the occasion of the meeting to announce that Viet Nam would invest in building a factory to produce energy-saving light bulbs in Cuba.
Hung said he hoped Viet Nams agricultural projects in Cuba would contribute to making Cuba more self-sufficient in food supplies.
The Cuban minister said his visit was aimed at facilitating partnerships with Vietnamese businessmen and promoting investment in light industry production between both countries.
