Vietnam always attaches importance to promoting friendship and
all-round cooperation with the Republic of Korea (RoK), Deputy
Prime Minister Vu Van Ninh has said.
Meeting with Chairman
of the House Steering Committee of the RoK National Assembly Lee Hahn
Koo in Hanoi on May 22, Ninh affirmed that Vietnam will do its
utmost to bolster the ties with the RoK.
The Deputy
PM said Vietnam treasures the RoK’s cooperation and support in various
fields such as economics, trade, culture and education, especially RoK
businesses’ contributions to Vietnam’s development over the past
years.
He expressed his hope that the RoK will
create further favourable conditions for Vietnamese people to live and
work in the RoK.
The Deputy PM said he believes that the Vietnam-RoK relations will be further promoted in the future.
He also appreciated the RoK’s suggestion to exchange experience and
support Vietnam in developing new model of rural area.
Lee Hahn Koo said his country wants to boost cooperation with
Vietnam in bilateral aspects as well as at regional and international
forums.
The regular meetings between senior leaders
of both countries have remarkably contributed to fostering the
RoK-Vietnam ties, he stressed.
He highlighted the
important role played both countries’ National Assemblies and
parliamentarians as representatives of will and aspiration of both
peoples in promoting the ties between the two countries in both depth
and width.
Lee Hahn Koo noted that in the coming
time, his country will send experts specialising in developing new rural
area model to Vietnam to share experience.-VNA
