The visits aim to further strengthen the strategic partnership with Singapore and to promote the enhanced comprehensive partnership with Australia towards elevating it to the level of strategic partnership in 2018.

It is the visit to Singapore by a top Vietnamese legislator after 14 years since the previous trip by NA Chairman Nguyen Van An in 2003.

Meanwhile, the Australia visit is also the first by a NA chairperson after the trip by NA Chairman Nguyen Phu Trong in 2008.
