National Assembly President Tran Thanh Man and his spouse, Nguyen Thi Thanh Nga, leave Hanoi on September 6 for official visits to the Republic of Korea (RoK) and Mongolia. 

The delegation includes Party Central Committee members: Deputy Prime Minister Ho Quoc Dung, N.A. Vice President Nguyen Thi Thanh, N.A. Secretary General and Chairman of the N.A. Office Le Quang Manh, Chairman of the N.A. Committee on National Defense, Security and Foreign Relations Le Tan Toi, Chairman of the N.A. Committee on Science, Technology and Environment and Chairman of the Viet Nam-RoK Parliamentary Friendship Group Nguyen Thanh Hai, Chairman of the N.A. Committee for Economic and Financial Affairs Phan Van Mai, and Chairman of the N.A. Committee for Deputy Affairs Nguyen Huu Dong. Deputy Head of the Party Central Committee's Organization Commission Hoang Trung Dung, Deputy Head of the Party Central Committee's Commission for Publicity Tran Thanh Lam, and representatives from several ministries and localities, the Viet Nam Fatherland Front, and the Viet Nam General Confederation of Labor also joined the delegation.

The top legislator’s official visits to the RoK and Mongolia are expected to contribute to the implementation of the Party's foreign policy outlined at its 14th National Congress and Politburo Resolution No. 06-NQ/TW, while further translating into concrete action the directions and agreements reached by high-ranking leaders of Viet Nam and the two partners.

The visits affirm Viet Nam's commitment and desire to further advance its comprehensive strategic partnership with the RoK and comprehensive partnership with Mongolia in an increasingly substantive, effective and sustainable manner.

N.A. President Man's first official visits to the RoK and Mongolia in his current capacity underscore the importance Viet Nam attaches to its bilateral ties and the important role of parliamentary diplomacy in its overall relations with the two countries.
