HÀ NỘI – Vice Chairwoman of the National Assembly (NA) Nguyễn Thị Thanh, who is also Chairwoman of the Việt Nam - Republic of Korea (RoK) Parliamentary Friendship Group (PFG), had a meeting with members of the group in Hà Nội on Tuesday.

Applauding the contributions by PFGs, including the Việt Nam - RoK Parliamentary Friendship Group, to parliamentary diplomacy, Thanh asked members of the Việt Nam - RoK PFG to further bring into play their role in helping to boost the two countries’ locality-to-locality cooperation in the fields they work in.

They should also continue serving as active contributors to the development of the two NAs’ ties, as well as people-to-people exchanges, she said.

The group reported that since the start of the NA’s 15th tenure, parliamentary cooperation has played an important part in the two countries’ overall relations and reaped many encouraging results.

Leaders of the two NAs, specialised committees, and the group have maintained frequent meetings and opinion sharing.

Activities of the group has been carried out actively, effectively and diversely through the close coordination among agencies in charge of the Party-to-Party, State-to-State, and people-to-people diplomacy such as the Party Central Committee’s Commission for External Relations, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Việt Nam Union of Friendship Organisations, and the Việt Nam - RoK Friendship Association.

Besides, the Việt Nam - RoK and RoK - Việt Nam PFGs have frequently met and worked with each other to hold activities marking the two countries’ major anniversaries. They have also actively participated in specialised forums, workshops, and discussions to share their countries’ experiences in building and perfecting development mechanisms and policies, thus helping reinforce cooperation between the two legislative bodies and the two countries.

For the time ahead, the Vietnam - RoK PFG is set to continue coordinating with relevant agencies of both sides to organise celebrations of the two countries’ anniversaries to match with the bilateral comprehensive strategic partnership. It will also work with the RoK side and Vietnamese agencies to arrange high-ranking delegation exchanges.

In addition, it will team up with the RoK - Việt Nam PFG and Korean parliamentarians to foster bilateral connections in such areas as development cooperation, trade, investment, health care, education, along with locality-to-locality and people-to-people links.

The two sides will also maintain meetings and information sharing with the Embassy and representatives of agencies and organisations of the RoK in Việt Nam to promote cooperation and deal with problems in a timely manner, according to the group.

Later the same day, Thanh received RoK Ambassador to Việt Nam Choi Young-sam. – VNS
