German Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s 2-day visit to Vietnam which began on Sunday was widely covered by German media. Rhein Post newspaper (RP) reported that Chancellor Scholz left Berlin on Saturday for the Vietnam visit, the first leg of his four-day trip to Asia and also his longest overseas trip since he took office last December.

Trade Newspaper (Handelsblatt) said that German businesses are increasingly shifting production to Vietnam to avoid risks. Since March, 10 new German factories have been built in Vietnam. The article said this trend will be motivated by the Chancellor’s visit, which is accompanied by an economic delegation.
