Vietnam premier asks for special help from aid donors

HANOI, Vietnam - Vietnamese Prime Minister Phan Van Khai (R) urges aid donor countries such as Japan on Dec. 8 to pay ''special'' attention to poor recipients such as Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia and Myanmar, even though donors may reduce their official development assistance (ODA) due to slow economic growth at home. In an exclusive interview with Kyodo News President Ichiro Saita, Khai said Japan's ODA to Vietnam has made ''substantial'' contributions to Vietnam's development over the past several years.
