Jang wished for regular high-level exchanges and contacts, more sharing of information and experience, and effective and substantive implementation of agreements and treaties signed by the two governments.

With hundreds of thousands of Vietnamese and Koreans living, studying and working in each other’s countries, bilateral ties have become special and inseparable, Jang said, describing Viet Nam as one of the RoK’s leading partners in various fields, including politics, security, trade, investment and people-to-people exchanges.

The PPP will offer all possible support to further push bilateral ties forward and expand trade and people-to-people exchanges, he said.

The PPP leader expressed his support for Viet Nam’s hosting of the 14th General Assembly of the International Conference of Asian Political Parties (ICAPP) in 2028.

Delighted at the strong, substantive and effective strides in Viet Nam-RoK relations more than 30 years after their diplomatic ties were established, N.A. President Tran Thanh Man affirmed that the Vietnamese Party and State always consider the RoK a leading important strategic partner, and wish to work with the RoK to continue pushing their partnership across all fields.

Concurring with the orientations for boosting exchanges and cooperation between the two parties, he proposed that the two sides continue encouraging their countries’ governments to foster economic, trade and investment links in a balanced, sustainable, effective and mutually beneficial manner, targeting USD 150 billion in bilateral trade by 2030.

The Vietnamese leader encouraged Korean companies to make new investments, expand operations and improve investment quality in Viet Nam. He also called for driving cultural, educational, sports and tourism exchanges and expanding cooperation among localities, entities, businesses and mass organizations.

On the occasion, he suggested the PPP and Chairman Jang continue creating favorable conditions for and protecting the legitimate rights and interests of the Vietnamese community living, studying and working in the RoK, including the nearly 100,000 Vietnamese-Korean multicultural families.

The Vietnamese N.A. will also continue facilitating the Korean community in Viet Nam, he said.
