"I sold everything I owned, including the house that my family was living in in order to finance the old Korean production line for production. Although they were old, we had a great deal of confidence because Korea is a country that has industrialized and modernized its economy and is one of the leading economies in Asia. Selecting Korean technology, we had peace of mind for quality and was at easy to innovate later on," Trung said.

At present, many domestic wood enterprises have become members and have an important voice in the major timber associations in the world. At the same time, the Vietnamese wood products are reaching out and integrating into the world market.
Daring reforming
In the past, agriculture was a vulnerable area when Vietnam's economy was being integrated into the world, because of the habits and techniques of our country's farmers. In addition to the economic conditions of the country in general and rural areas in particular, it is difficult to apply science and technology and to renovate the production process.
Nguyen Thanh Trung, general director of Binh Duong Agriculture Joint Stock Company, said that when working in agriculture, You have to do is to promote the available strength of the farmers and to change the old way, backward. Farmers' habits are dependent on the weather so they are not proactive in producing products that meet the market demand. Meanwhile, in developed countries they have predicted the weather is actively adapt to the weather by the interference of science and technology. Israel, for example, is a semi-desert country, but its milk production is not bad in the Netherlands, which is famous for dairy cattle, because they know how to keep cows warm. Such evidence demonstrates that scientific information needs to be concretized in a way that is understandable and easy to do, thereby helping local farmers in general, in Binh Duong in particular to successfully integrate.
Meanwhile, according to Lam Thanh Thuong, owner of a farm named after him, specializing in citrus in Hieu Liem commune, Bac Tan Uyen district, citrus fruit is just as good as a beneficial drug for health. However, this tree indicates seasonal fruit. To grow citrus with industrial scale, the farm owner should have many factors such as: the characteristics of growth and development of trees; the cultivation techniques and techniques for the service by applying science and technology to combine the experience of farmers and "trade".
Not only Lam Thanh Thuong citrus farms, now citrus farms in Bac Tan Uyen district for fruit year round, guaranteed by orders of customers. The good news is that the National Office of Intellectual Property (the Ministry of Science and Technology) granted certificates of trademark registration for the brands. This result is opening up doors for local fruits to have a firm foothold in the market.
