Commending COMAC’s achievements in production and business operations, the Deputy PM welcomed its interest in collaborating with Vietnamese airlines, including VietJet, to diversify Vietnam’s aircraft fleet and meet the rapid growth of the country's aviation market.

Ha urged COMAC to provide comprehensive information on its aircraft that have been commercially operated and reviewed by international organisations and countries.
In the initial phase, the official suggested that VietJet and COMAC explore cooperation with a Chinese airline currently operating COMAC’s airplanes to test specific routes already serviced by VietJet.
