Yunnan, China, 14 May 2025 — YCH Group and Vietnam SuperPort™ have entered into a landmark Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Yunnan Energy Investment Group, marking a significant milestone in efforts to enhance logistics connectivity between Vietnam, China, and the greater ASEAN region. Held in Yunnan, the signing ceremony brought together senior industry leaders and government officials, highlighting the vital role of cross-border collaboration in shaping the future of regional supply chains. 

Dr Yap Kwong Weng, CEO of Vietnam SuperPort™, reaffirmed the company’s commitment to the initiative, stating, “We will fully leverage the capabilities of the multimodal Vietnam SuperPort™ to support this partnership, serving as an integral component of the regional logistics network. We are committed to strengthening supply chain connectivity, enhancing operational efficiency, and boosting the resilience of trade flows across borders.” 

The partnership complements the recently announced China–Vietnam rail initiative and will be underpinned by supporting infrastructure such as logistics parks and overseas warehouses. Together, these developments will establish robust trade corridors, positioning Vietnam as a strategic gateway to China and accelerating ASEAN-China economic integration. 

Sustainability and digital innovation remain core pillars of the Vietnam SuperPort™ project. With a firm goal of achieving net-zero emissions by 2040, the logistics hub incorporates green technologies to become one of the most environmentally forward-looking logistics developments in the region. Concurrently, the deployment of advanced digital solutions—including artificial intelligence (AI) and blockchain—will optimise operations, increase transparency, and reduce costs across the supply chain. 

Looking ahead, Vietnam SuperPort™ is also investing in workforce development to equip logistics professionals with the skills needed for a tech-enabled future. In tandem, close cooperation with customs authorities aims to streamline cross-border procedures and introduce “green lanes” for faster, more secure trade. 

This MoU represents more than a strategic alliance—it is a shared commitment to building next-generation logistics infrastructure across Asia. By championing smart, sustainable, and integrated solutions, the partnership sets the stage for long-term growth, deeper regional cooperation, and shared economic growth along the ASEAN-China corridor.
