The corporation suggested to the Ministry of Transport the project be carried out through a public-private partnership model at a recent meeting with Viet Nam's Ministry of Transport.
At the meeting with the Ministry of Transport, ITOCHU Corporation of Japan proposes to construct a wharf to transport cereals at Lach Huyen port in northern Hai Phong City.
This project would cover 18ha and need backing of about $150 million. This would be for basic infrastructure worth about $40 million from an official development assistance loan.
