processed and packaged by Tien Ngan. Meanwhile, New Production Technology and
Trading Development Company Limited and Vina Agri Import Company were in charge
of procedures and logistics.

occasion.
Speaking at the ceremony, Su asked the Department of Agriculture and Rural
Development and other departments and agencies and localities in Hoa Binh to
further facilitate sugarcane production and processing, meeting food safety
requirements and others set by both domestic and foreign markets.
More batches of fresh sugarcane are to be exported to the RoK this month.
