HANOI: The Industry and Trade Ministry (MoIT) will roll out major measures to boost exports to the European and American markets this year, an official says.

Ta Hoang Linh, director of the European-American Market Department under MoIT, said, to maximise advantages and minimise challenges for both exports and imports, the ministry will keep a close watch on market developments, as well as changes in terms of politics and policies around the world in order to give timely warnings to businesses and advice to the government.
