(VOVworld) – Ho Chi Minh city has hosted a consultation workshop on a draft law on foreigners’ entry, exit, and residence in Vietnam. Participants agreed that Vietnam’s deeper international integration has made it necessary to simplify entry-exit procedures to attract greater investment for economic development.
