According to Prof., Dr. Cheng, the “bamboo diplomacy” policy initiated by General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong has created great economic miracles for Vietnam, enhancing the country’s international position and inspiring people’s national pride.

Meanwhile, Xu Ningning, Chairman of the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) Industry Cooperation Committee and Executive President of the China-ASEAN Business Council, noted that under General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong’s leadership, Vietnam, on one hand, has built an economic development policy suitable to the country's conditions, and, on the other hand, actively promoted economic cooperation with neighboring countries, world powers and other important countries in the world such as China, the U.S., Russia and Japan. Under the Party chief’s leadership, Vietnam successfully negotiated and signed many bilateral and multilateral free trade agreements (FTAs) with partners, he said. 

Wei Wei, a researcher of Vietnam from China's central television and radio station, asserted that under General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong’s leadership, the country's diplomacy has emphasized the priority of developing relations with neighboring countries, major countries and traditional partners.

Prof., Dr. Cheng also highlighted General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong’s contribution to the growth of the China-Vietnam relations and the long-standing friendship between the two countries, saying that the fact that Vietnamese leader was honored with a “Friendship Order” of China in 2022 demonstrated the recognition of the Chinese Government and people for the Vietnamese leader’s contributions to the healthy growth of bilateral ties.

Regarding anti-corruption efforts, Xu Liping, Director of the Center for Southeast Asian Studies at the Chinese Academy of Social Science (CASS), said that General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong stressed the need to firmly maintain the spirit of self-revolution and constantly promote the building of the Party's leadership capacity on these issues.

Sharing Xu’s opinions, Prof. Miliang, Director of the Center for Southeast Asian Studies and Dean of the Law School of Beijing Foreign Studies University said that General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong was an outstanding leader of the Vietnamese Party and nation, adding that he made significant contribution to the building of the Communist Party of Vietnam and in the fight against corruption, resulting in outstanding results in the fight against corruption, promoting integrity, enhancing prestige and consolidating the Party's leadership.
