Accordingly, a delegation led by the deputy head worked with the Chinese partner to discuss legal shipment of Vietnamese pork to the market.
Vietnam will officially export the commodity to China from this year, right after the delegation finalizes procedures.
The Chinese side asked Vietnamese specialized agencies, especially the Department of Animal Health, to soon check and solve technical problems related to epidemic control so that the country could remove restrictions on pork exports from Vietnam. The two sides will gradually conclude specific negotiations to sign deals for the official pork import from Vietnam.
Vietnam should complete procedures which satisfy the requirements from the market in order to prove that it effectively controls foot and mouth disease.
The Chinese side will send a delegation to Vietnam to survey the controls of the disease, in order to open the market for the commodity this year./.
