In a bid to boost bilateral cooperation, GJEPC held a series of constructive meetings with key stakeholders from Vietnam’s gemstone and investment sectors. A key meeting was held with Mr. K.S. Ngo The Hoc, Vice President and General Secretary of the Vietnam Association of Gemstones (VAG), accompanied by representatives from seven member companies. Discussions centred on potential areas of collaboration, including the possibility of signing an MoU between VAG and GJEPC to boost industry ties and engagement.
During the interaction, GJEPC extended formal invitations to the Vietnamese delegates to attend IIJS Premiere 2025 in Mumbai and SAJEX 2025 in Saudi Arabia. The delegation responded positively and showed keen interest in organising a visiting group for both events.
