No, it's a MOU, and you cant set up a MOU on your own, as it is an agreement between two or more parties. The cooperation will boost production in Cambodia, so that it will facilitate increased export to Vietnam, possibly at a better price for Vietnam than buying from India. Cambodia benefits from increased production and export and Vietnam benefits from increased imports from a market close at hand, and no doubt at a better price.
According to data from the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries,
Cambodia is producing a total of about 104,268 tonnes of cashews annually. Most production comes out of the Kampong Thom and Kampong Cham provinces, which account for 29 percent and 18 percent respectively of the country’s total production.
During this past harvest season
Vietnam bought around 102,000 tonnes of cashew nuts from Cambodia, explained Sakhon, with the few tonnes of cashews remaining being locally processed.
He added that Vietnam is currently importing about 1.2 million tonnes of cashews from India annually, and that it also exports about 3.2 million tonnes of processed cashews to international markets each year.
