Head of the Party Central Committee’s Economic Commission Tran Tuan Anh stressed the view in meetings with Ambassadors of Japan, Singapore, and New Zealand on July 14.
During the meeting with Japanese Ambassador Yamada Takio, Anh said the Party and government of Vietnam give priority to the Vietnam-Japan strategic partnership, expecting the bilateral relations to continue progressing based on mutual trust and close linkage between the two countries.
Anh expressed his thanks to the Japanese government and people for providing three million Covid-19 vaccines for Vietnam, which shows the friendship and support for each other in tough times.
As both countries are preparing for the 50th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations in 2023, “cultural exchange and people-to-people diplomacy would lay the foundation for the two to take the relations to a new height,” Anh added.
For his part, Takio expressed his impression of Vietnam’s efforts in economic recovery and fighting the pandemic at the same time.
“Japan would continue to fostering its relations with Vietnam, especially in economy, trade, and investment,” stated the ambassador.

As New Zealand has been among countries successfully containing the pandemic and keep positive economic growth, Anh expected the two countries to share experience in this regard.
