Deputy PM Phuc made the remark at a January 21 meeting with Speaker of the RoK National Assembly (NA) Kang Chang-hee held as part of the Vietnamese leader’s trip to the country.
The Deputy PM suggested that the RoK continue to back the bilateral ties and that it create favourable conditions for the two sides’ competent agencies to effectively realise the agreements they have reached.
He said the RoK should continue supporting the overseas Vietnamese community, particularly Vietnamese brides, to strengthen their integration into the community and stabilise their lives.
For his part, Kang Chang-hee spoke highly of Vietnam’s reform process achievements and its development potential, voicing his hope that the exchanges and co-operation between the two NAs would be boosted.
The host affirmed that the RoK legislative body would further facilitate the growth of the strategic partnership between the two countries, and would continue to take practical measures to support the Vietnamese community in the country.
Both guest and host agreed that the two sides needed to promote people-to-people diplomacy and enhance their friendship, mutual understanding and trust.
