Quang
Nam (VNS/VNA) - After four years of preparations, the National
Office of Intellectual Property of Vietnam has granted Geographical
Indication (GI) to the Cham Islands
The Hoi An city People’s Committee, which has jurisdiction over the
islands, said the product contributed 20 percent to the city’s Gross Regional
Domestic Product (GRDP) annually.
A report from the Ministry of Science and Technology said the bird's nests
are seen as one of the best products in Vietnam due to their high nutritional
value with 50 percent protein.
