DPRK representatives visit VinFast automobile manufacturing facility
In the afternoon of February 27, a delegation led by three presidents from the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) visited the VinFast automobile manufacturing complex in Haiphong city after visiting Halong Bay – a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The three presidents of DPRK visited the facility manufacturing the bodies of automobile and scooters and were welcomed by the VinFast board of directors and hundreds of students of VinFast’s vocational training centre, according to newswire Vnexpress.vn.
Speaking at the visit, the representative of VinFast introduced the operations and business models of VinFast, Vinsmart, and VinEco.
Before returning to Hanoi, the delegation also visited a high-tech industrial park located in Tan Lien commune, Vinh Bao district of Haiphong city.
The tour of the VinFast facility
On November 20, 2018 VinFast introduced the price list of its cars at the launching ceremony of its vehicles organised at Thong Nhat Park.
VinFast breathed life into Vietnam’s dream of a bright future in the automobile industry, showing that the country can reach farther than simple assembly, if only its corporations can be more proactive and dare to dream bigger.
