Vietnam: Kiên Giang eyes $1b in exports

Wednesday, 10 August 2016 – The Mekong Delta province of Kiên Giang is striving to earn at least US$1 billion from exports by 2020, according to the province recently-released action programme.

Of these, farm produce is expected to yield $495 million and aquaculture $230 million. The province will boost the exports of frozen shrimp, frozen squid and rice to markets with strong purchasing power while enhancing the competitiveness and integration capacity of businesses.
