Germany is making a pitch to sell more of its advanced textile and apparel technologies to Vietnam, staging an event for some 600 members of the Vietnam Textile and Apparel Association in Hanoi. German machinery is of high quality although its cost is high, said association deputy chairman Truong Van Cam. "However, if Vietnamese textile enterprises want to develop modern technology, they should cooperate with high-technology providers to catch up with global quality and labour productivity," he added.
