AN GIANG — The Business Studies and Assistance Centre and southern An Giang Province's Investment and Trade Promotion Centre held two trade fairs to promote Vietnamese goods at the Khanh Binh and Tinh Bien border gates.
Vu Kim Hanh, director of the BSA – a non-profit trade promotion organisation based in HCM City – said they were the first step in a programme of 10 trade fairs on the Cambodian border through which high-quality Vietnamese goods would be popularised.
The network of markets and retail outlets on the border was too meagre and supply could not meet demand, she said.
"Many Cambodians come shopping to the Vietnamese border outlets daily."
It is to take advantage of this demand that the BSA, along with An Giang, Dong Thap, Long An, Tay Ninh, and Binh Phuoc Provinces, plans to organise the 10 fairs.
Besides selling goods, the fairs will also enable Vietnamese enterprises to get in touch with Cambodian authorities for developing distribution networks in the country.
They will also make preparation for enterprises to take part in the Trade Fair of High Quality Vietnamese Goods in Cambodia next April.
A survey last August by the BSA and Truong Doan Market Survey Company in the Cambodian capital Phnom Penh and Battambang and Ta Keo Provinces found that many Vietnamese products have become more popular than their Thai and Chinese rivals.
Vietnamese dried foods, spices, frozen processed products, household plastic items, exterior and interior decoration items, toilet equipment, footwear, and leather and leatherette products hold between 33 and 93 per cent of that market.
Its milk and milk products, tinned foods, soft drinks, beers, wines, rubber products, and fabrics are as popular as Thai products and more popular than Chinese.
Viet Nam can grab a larger market share if its firms come up with improved designs and packaging, lower prices, and strengthen promotion, the survey pointed out.

In Cambodia we have:
HUN YUON...(Supheap Boros Neak Leng)
This dude gets a C+ for defending the Western borders (with Siem), an F for the Eastern borders (with Yuon)
SIEM RAINSY...(Supheap Boros Komsak Nhee)
This dandy gets a B- for his efforts defending the Eastern borders (with Yuon), a D for his silence on the Western borders (with Siem)
To the Cambodians, the youns are the eastern siems, and the siems are the western yuons. Same same...
To 11:51 AM,
Good one. I like the way you put things into the right perspective.

HIS MAJESTY KING SIHAMONI...(Preah Moha KSatr daw Praser)...gets an A for his tireless devotion to the Khmer people...as a king under the Khmer constitution, he is prohibited to take side on any political party. But he has the right to post opinions regarding Cambodia's sovereignty.
He should have summoned Hun Yuon over and question him regarding his duty as a Prime Minister to protect Khmer sovereignty regarding border encroachments by Yuons.
hey, cambodia is not about youn and siem like during the dark ages, you know. so, it is silly to suggest it, really! got to steer away from these historical enemies of khmer people, ok! wake up, people!
so ignorant to think that cambodia is all about youn and siem! maybe during the dark ages, but that was history already! isolationa and ignorance are the real enemies of cambodia, really!
They evicted our Khmer families in Siem Reap for Yuon to settle their businesses. I heard majorities of our people had been relocated place such as Pailin, Battambang, Kompong Chnang, and Kompong Som. The businesses were very profitable in Siem Reap somehow we have no choice but to "Live by the rule and die buy the rule."
Food from vietnam have too much preservative which cause cancer. Stay away from it.
stupid thinking!
