He asked the firm to strengthen partnerships with Vietnamese enterprises, helping them engage in its global supply chain and ecosystem.
Boyd-Bowman revealed that his company is actively exploring more investment opportunities in Vietnam.
It is working to advance visits to Vietnam by the Trump Organization leaders, thus helping bolster the two countries' relations and elevate Vietnam’s global profile, he added.
