In his remarks, Dinh emphasized that Vietnam's N.A. plays an important role in reforming the country's institutions, supervising the rule of the law, and ensuring the implementation of sustainable development strategies.
He stated that the Vietnamese law-making body welcomes the active role of the IPU and always works closely with it in promoting dialogue, cooperation, and support among member parliaments to enhance connectivity, exchange experiences, and provide practical solutions to contribute to building a sustainable peace worldwide.
Lauding the event’s theme of “Parliamentary action for peace, justice and strong institutions (SDG 16),” Dinh recommended member parliaments work together and concert efforts to accelerate the progress towards achieving sustainable development goals (SDGs) in the remaining half of the journey. It is necessary to make these goals a priority in national target programs, socio-economic development master plans, and parliamentary activities.
