    Trump Organization plans skyscraper development in Ho Chi Minh City as Eric Trump visits Vietnam

    Synopsis

    The Trump Organization is considering a skyscraper project in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, alongside a local partner. Eric Trump's visit to Vietnam this week coincides with this exploration, according to a Vietnamese government document. This follows the approval of the Trump Organization's $1.5 billion golf project and ongoing trade discussions between Vietnam and the U.S. to avert potential tariffs.

    The Trump Organization and its local partner are exploring building a skyscraper in Vietnam's business hub Ho Chi Minh City as Eric Trump is expected to visit Vietnam this week, a Vietnamese government document seen by Reuters shows.

    The visit by the U.S. President's son comes just after the Trump Organization received the green light from Vietnam's government for a separate $1.5 billion golf project and as the Southeast Asian export-reliant nation is in talks with Washington to avoid punitive trade tariffs.

    Ho Chi Minh City officials are invited to "attend a dinner party with Eric Trump, senior vice president of the Trump Organization," on Thursday evening, the internal document seen by Reuters said.
