Mr. Chainarong Limpkittisin, Managing Director, Reed Tradex Company said that based on the industrial forecasts and outlooks, Reed Tradex has realized the growing importance of supporting industries in Vietnam as the country is joining global supply chains and value chains. Vietnam’s supporting industry finds a lot of opportunities for development. Specifically, large foreign corporations have established manufacturing and assembling facilities in Vietnam and they very much expect to have more local parts suppliers to reduce transport costs and risks. The Vietnamese support industry sector has many development opportunities, especially when Vietnam joins the global supply chain. Many foreign companies, who have built manufacturing and assembling plants in Vietnam, expect to partner with more domestic spare part suppliers to reduce transport expense and risks. The government has also provided significant support to the industrial sector which is one of the areas that attract the most overseas investment. However, necessary elements such as product development and human resource training on a continuous basis, should always be given importance as these will enforce the manufacturing industries to become even stronger with higher productivity as well as competitive credibility. Dr Vu Tien Loc, President of Vietnam Chamber of Commerce and Industry (VCCI), stated that the 11th National Congress of the Communist Party of Vietnam worked out the Socio-economic Development Strategy 2011-2020 with the main target of developing Vietnam into a modern industrial country by 2020. “ In fact, the national economy’s development requires a total restructuring, phasing out labour-intensive machines into participating more strongly and deeply in supply chains and value chains, and moving from wide to deep development. On that basis, we will improve the quality of the economy, and save capital investment with effective sustainable development. According to JETRO’s survey information in October 2011, the percentage of parts and components purchase in Vietnam was only 28.7 percent, less than those in other countries in ASEAN (e.g Thailand: 53 percent, Indonesia: 41 percent and Malaysia: 39.3 percent) and China: 59.7 percent. As a result, Japanese manufacturers in Vietnam have to import necessary parts and components from other countries such as Japan, Thailand, and China. This reduces not only its competitive capability of supplying products to assemblers, but also decreases the trade profit of Vietnam. We strongly believe in the potential growth of supporting industries and the positive effects of it on sustainable development. Mr. Chainarong added that as the ASEAN Economic Community is approaching in the year 2015, the exchange of machinery, technology, knowledge and other products have become easier than in the past. In one sense, this helps speed up the advancement of the industrial and commercial sectors but at the same time, we have to keep improving ourselves for the rising competition from other countries in the region with promising industrial capacities as well. Many foreigners believe in the growth potential of the supporting industries and that their development will foster Vietnam’s manufacturing sector and economy. At present, many foreign investors are strongly confident to invest in Vietnam. The continued foreign direct investment in Vietnam is proof that the manufacturing and supporting industries here not only have a bright future, but also play vital roles in the well-being of the economy. “As we have promised to support Vietnamese manufacturers to develop supporting industry and prepare to growth with AEC. Reed Tradex has joined with JETRO to organize Vietnam Supporting Industries Forum on Wednesday 1 August 2012 at Ballroom, Intercontinental Asiana Saigon Hotel, Ho Chi Minh City to serve as a learning platform for all leading industrialists across Vietnam about how supporting industries in Vietnam can stay competitive and leap forward in the ASEAN Economic Community to be implemented in 2015. High light topics of this seminar will be keynote Speech “Overview of Vietnam Manufacturing Industry Development” and Panel Presentation” Working together: Growing together; Expanding Vietnamese Supporting Industries by Reaching Japanese Standard”, “How to reach Japanese Production Standard and QC system?” by Japanese Automobile Manufacture and “How to Increase Efficiency of Vietnamese Supporting Industries” by Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA)* We would like to encourage Vietnamese executives from Manufacturing Industries and Supporting Industries sector, Japanese executives from Manufacturing Industries sector to attend this forum to update how to make production to meet stringent quality requirements from Japanese buyer, to get an insight into Policy and Supporting Scheme to Secure and Increase Japanese Investment and to learn and understand how to reach Japanese Production Standard and QC system” Mr Chainarong concluded.

China thin film solar cell standard organization - thin film solar cells Standards Committee of China Electronics Standardization Association was established in Foshan, Guangdong in 2010. The Commission has a positive effect for China making more efforts to promote the innovation of thin film solar cell technology, the major standard-setting, and the standard use of the promotion work. Guangdong government document states: with the construction of Green Guangdong achieved an “initial success”, the government decide to shut down small thermal power orderly and promote energy conservation and pollution reduction effectively. Guangdong Province electricity situation is grim with populated living and developed industry, the decision of shutting down small thermal power indicate that the government has placed great hopes on the solar photovoltaic industry. The files about key breakthroughs in core technologies in Guangdong during the 12th Five-Year indicate that Guangdong will focus on the development of thin film solar photovoltaic cells and materials, while “Program to accelerate the development of high-tech service industry” issued by the Economic and Information Technology Commission of Guangdong Province also points out the government will firstly promoting the development of thin film solar cells and some related energy. PV experts said: thin film solar industry is bound to occupy an important position in the field of solar cells, and its prospects are very promising. To greatly develop thin film solar cells, Guangdong need the support of a large number of new manufacturing equipment and materials to produce excellent thin film solar cells.

The worldwide debt crisis and the macro control policy in the real estate industry of China make the development of China real estate anfractuous. Mr. Zhu Zhong, Vice Chairman of China Real Estate Association, said that in the coming decade, China real estate will not be extensive development anymore and will be an age of enhanced and burgeoning, in Guangzhou on December 10. The real estate industry will turn to an age of formalized planning, design and high quality construction from irrational design and construction before. Therefore, windoor, as an important component of building structure, have to turn to an age of systematic design and installation from bulk management before.

The smart windoor make environment-protection; energy-saving and advantage of system integration stand out. Smart windoor reflect and put emphasis on practice and energy-saving of window, door and curtain wall. Government of China tables a proposal of "12•5" development plan. Energy-saving and environment-protection is one of the measurement standards of government performance in the plan. It is also the future development trend of construction works. In the construction overall consumption, nearly 60% is from windoor. As one of the key construction consumption, the energy-saving and environment-protection of windoor will also be draw highly attention by manufacturer and consumer. The concept of smart, systematic, energy-saving in over ten thousand products can be seen in the expo. A wave of advanced environment-protection window, door companies can be seen in the expo, too. Such as Beijing Melucky Door & Window Lopm., LTD., (which devotes itself to be a technology industrialization base of energy-saving wood structure windoor of China), Zhejiang Ruiming Energy-Saving Doors & Windows Co., Ltd.
