Belarus' postal service partaking in forum in Moscow

MOSCOW, 18 September (BelTA) – The Belarusian national postal service Belpochta is discussing the future of postal services at the second international forum of heads of postal operators in Moscow, BelTA learned from the press service of the Belarusian embassy in Russia.

As noted at the forum held under the aegis of the Universal Postal Union, “rapid changes in the global economy, the implementation of innovations, and soaring online trade require prompt introduction of digital technologies in the work of one of the world's oldest services.”

Belpochta Director General Vladimir Matusevich held talks with representatives of Russian and Vietnamese postal services on the sidelines of the summit.

It was emphasized during the meeting with Russian colleagues that one of the common tasks is the transformation of postal services into efficient profitable enterprises in accordance with the new economic and technological reality without losing their social functions. The postal business needs to develop information infrastructure and actively implement modern automated systems in its logistics infrastructure.

Vladimir Matusevich and Vietnam Post Director General Pham Anh Tuan discussed the prospects of the Belarus-Vietnam working group. The decision to set up the working group was taken following negotiations in Minsk in September 2017. The sides agreed to intensify cooperation in postal services, including financial services, money orders, logistics, and e-commerce. The two countries are going to sign a memorandum of cooperation in postal services in the near future.
