The ASEAN Japan Trade, Investment and Tourism Promotion Centre (AJC) held a special support programme for Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar and Vietnam in a bid to support high-quality handicraft exporters to the world’s third largest economy. The Vietnam Trade Promotion Agency collaborated with AJC to organise the programme in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City from February 21 to 24, 2012.
