trade promotion activities is still small 36 LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com It can be seen that in national trade promotion activities held in Asian and European countries, the number of business units participating in trade promotion activities is still low The cause, the state budget investment, financial support for businesses involved in trade promotion activities is still limited  The size of the event being held is still small The scale of the organized trade fairs is still small when the amount of money paid for by the state budget or enterprises spontaneously closes from VND billion to VND 10 billion Given the small size of trade promotion programs, it may not be as effective as trade promotion programs organized by major countries The reason, due to the main funding for organizing a trade promotion program, is often from the state budget, but it can be seen that the state budget provided to organize activities remains limited with limited procedures  The number of foreign businesses participating in the event remains low and limited The number of businesses participating in trade promotion events is still limited It was not until the beginning of 2018 that the growth in the number of businesses participating in trade fairs and seminars on trade promotion of fishery products was not seen before, but before 2018, there was almost no number of businesses and water pavilions As a result, it restricts the exchange of information on trade and aquatic products that are likely to disappear in the country The reason, the state or leading ministries and agencies still have not many policies to attract foreign enterprises creates a big barrier for the participation of enterprises 37 LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add

Completing management policies, encouraging trade promotion activities ` Like all other economic activities, in order to develop trade promotion activities, meeting the task requirements of the immediate 10 years, our Government needs to have uniform legal documents defining the organization 40 LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com and functions , tasks, management, content management on trade promotion activities There is a need for more comprehensive measures to improve the management of trade promotion activities It goes hand in hand with the amendment of the Commercial Law, especially when joining international economic organizations Management concepts and systems should conform to international practices Before the request to encourage all economic sectors to participate in promoting trade promotion activities, according to a general orientation of the economy, another requirement posed as a sufficient condition when establishing measures to perfect the trade promotion system , that is the liberalization of trade promotion activities State management must be based on a uniform legal system Regulatory measures will be through planning, planning, financing, etc The time has come to apply for registration of operations, and introduce the form of operating licenses So far, the form of overseas trade fairs still requires a license, so the forms of advertising The liberalization of trade promotion activities, methods of management and inspection need to be applied immediately when drafting ordinances on trade fair, advertisement activities and amended Trade Law 3.3.2.2 Building a budget source for trade promotion Although trade promotion activities are very wide and undertaken by many economic sectors, the infrastructure of the trade promotion system must be undertaken by the State Especially in the early stages of industrialization and modernization of the country This is completely consistent with the objective laws of the market economy Budget sources are allocated as economic non-business expenses, special economic activities to build infrastructure, information, even for trade promotion On the other hand, funding sources can be established such as export reward funds deducted from export taxes and so on The funds and budget 41 LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com resources will be managed through the focal points at ministerial level, or Ministry of Planning and Investment and Ministry of Finance Fund usage regime will be regulated through inter-ministerial circulars In addition, businesses need to create support funds to the state budget or can stand on their own through independent NGOs, typically the Processing Association and Vietnam Seafood Export (VASEP) 3.3.2.2 Supplying information and research for trade promotion activities The necessary information to serve trade promotion activities such as: ¬ Information about domestic and foreign investment is important for businesses, because domestic and foreign investment directly contributes to the expansion of domestic production, the amount of goods produced is more and more diversified abundance of types, quality is raised, costs reduced due to technical improvements, gradually meet the requirements of foreign markets The ability to sell in foreign markets will increase Information on product quality, medical standards, food safety and environment, compliance with the requirements of international standards Information about infrastructure supporting exports such as currency markets,

subsidies, subsidies or loans to boost exports, with priority policies for enterprises entering new markets and export new products Information on the development of e-commerce allows businesses to conduct business around the world, improve the competitiveness of businesses, shorten the supply cycle of goods and services, reduced spending costs, price The state's interest in and sponsorship of export promotion information activities is necessary and many countries have also done, considering this as export support and assistance recognized by countries in the process international economic integration Trade information in general and information for export promotion are important infrastructure for promoting exports and improving the competitiveness of enterprises Enterprises must pay attention to investing in information technology infrastructure, using all forms of information provision to improve the ability to process and receive information 3.3.2.2 Some of the other solutions  Increase the application of science and technology Information technology has turned many fields of social life upside down The same goes for trade promotion Advertising companies, fairs, information agencies are always confronted with the rapid change in information technology Therefore, the need to develop a Trade Information Development Fund model will operate under the motto that the State and people build together The State supports commercial information development projects to develop and research information needs of enterprises to provide free 43 LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com information and support In addition to adequate technology investment for trade promotion activities, it is necessary to ensure the quality of information products, store information and store development, to achieve high efficiency in trade promotion  Strengthen the help of authorities The variety of export support agencies sometimes leads to a overlap of functions and tasks, leading to the ineffective operation of agencies, so the role of Trade Promotion Department is very important Coordination, binding agencies operating in the direction of a common strategy is the main function of Trade Promotion Department, absolutely not specific operational activities Because specific operational activities must allow agencies of all economic sectors to participate in an equal game The functions and contents of trade promotion activities at micro level need to be promoted include: Dialogue between the Government and businesses Assess the export potential of businesses Preparing, designing and developing products Packing Quality standards and inspection Trade information Directory of businesses Publications about the country and the market Trade delegations Trade show fair Human resource development Through the demand survey, promotion organizations need to support businesses in services such as: Searching for inputs and outputs for businesses Marketing consulting for businesses 44 LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com Business advice Advertising help Access to funding sources Access to business opportunities Advice on standard contract Assisting in market disputes  Reinforcing the help of advisory councils Currently, due to difficulties in establishing communication channels between the Trade Promotion Organization and the exporting enterprises, exporters not trust the Trade Promotion Organization's ability to support activities their export, and a number of other causes The above situation can be effectively overcome through the establishment of an advisory council composed of selected members from exporters Advisory councils are set up to deal with issues related to a specific product group or to consider a functional area that affects export performance This Council, together with Trade Promotion Organization, will study arising issues and recommend solutions to Government officials and Agencies This Council can also act as Advisory group to the Trade Promotion Organization on common issues  Support businesses to expand markets In order to survive, compete and thrive in the current conditions, international business enterprises need to know and understand the market as well as expand the market Businesses actively seek partners through seminars, field trips with the help of ministries and industries acting as organizers, mistakenly connecting future benefits 45 LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com CONCLUSION Through internships at Vietnam Association of Seafood Exporters and Producers (VASEP) and learn about trade promotion activities I realize that the VASEP Association is a bridge and a solid support for seafood businesses in the country Become a place to connect consumers with businesses, between businesses and businesses, between businesses and organizations However, there are still some limitations in typical trade promotion activities such as barriers between continental countries Or the lack of capital leads to small and limited scope of trade promotion programs The State has not had many policies to promote domestic and foreign enterprises to help them develop The report was conducted under the guidance of officials and employees at the Vietnam Association of Seafood Exporters and Producers (VASEP) and Dr Dao Hoang Tuan to help me understand the trade promotion methods informally organize fairs and conferences Thereby it is possible to see the importance of trade promotion for businesses, only to see that our country with great potential in the fishery industry will be able to develop more in the future 46 LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com 47 LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG
