The host expressed his delight at the growth of Vietnam-China relations as seen through frequent mutual high-ranking visits and fruitful cooperation in trade, investment, and tourism. While people-to-people exchanges between counterpart organizations have been fostered, friendship activities between residents in the countries’ border areas have also increased.

Noting similarities in the roles, functions, and tasks of the VFF and the CPPCC, Man said the two sides have held annual high-level delegation exchanges as well as signed agreements to enhance cooperation between the two organizations at both central and local levels, thereby helping to consolidate their countries’ friendship.
