China’s investment in Việt Nam rose more than 10 times to $25 billion over the last 15 years. People-to-people exchanges and cooperation between localities of Việt Nam and China have recorded many practical results. So far, nearly 60 provinces and cities of Việt Nam have set up friendly and cooperative ties with Chinese localities.
