National Assembly Chairman Vuong Dinh Hue’s upcoming attendance at the 44th General Assembly of the ASEAN Inter-Parliamentary Assembly (AIPA-44) and official visit to Indonesia from August 4 will help promote Vietnam’s parliamentary cooperation with other ASEAN countries and create a new motivation for the Vietnam-Indonesia strategic partnership.
Vice Chairwoman of the National Assembly Committee for Foreign
Affairs Le Thu Ha made the comment in an interview with the media on the
threshold of Hue’s trip.
Ha said that for AIPA-44, Vietnam has actively proposed three draft
resolutions on “Digital transformation led by women and for women”,
“Promoting innovation, transfer, application and development of science
and technology for sustainable growth and development”, and “Promoting
the adoption of ASEAN guidelines on responsible investment in the food,
agriculture and forestry sectors”.
The three resolutions, to be introduced at meetings of Women
Parliamentarians of AIPA (WAIPA) and the AIPA Economic Committee are
very important, as they can help ASEAN exploit its advantages in science
and technology and innovation to serve economic recovery and
development; and make most of potential to develop the food and
agro-forestry sectors.
In addition, Vietnam has also actively contributed ideas to other draft
resolutions at the Economic Committee, Social Committee, Political
Committee and will co-sponsor draft resolutions in these committees with
other countries, Ha said.
Regarding the top legislator’s official visit to Indonesia, Ha said that
this is the first trip by Hue as Chairman of the National Assembly and
also the first by a top legislator of Vietnam to Indonesia after 13
years, since the visit by National Assembly Chairman Nguyen Phu Trong in
2010.
The visit takes place in the context that the two countries are
celebrating the 10th anniversary of the strategic partnership, and
considering to upgrade the ties to the next level.
It aims to continue implementing the 13th National Party Congress’s
foreign policy, and actively consolidate and expand the political
relationship between the two countries, and promote bilateral effective
and practical cooperation in all fields, and via the Party, National
Assembly, Government and people's diplomacy channels, thus contributing
to enhancing political trust.
The visit’s message affirms the priority Vietnam gives to developing and
promoting friendship and multi-faceted collaboration with traditional
friends in the region, in order to open up new opportunities in the
field of economy and trade, and create a new impetus to strengthen the
bilateral strategic partnership in a more extensive and effective
manner.
During his trip, Hue will hold talks and meetings with high-ranking
Indonesian leaders and attend a number of other important events.
Ha added that the two countries’ legislative bodies have maintained good
relations through regular delegation exchanges, and coordination and
stance sharing on regional and international issues of mutual concern at
multilateral forums.
She expressed her hope that with cooperation potential and determination
of leaders of Vietnam and Indonesia, the relations between the two
parliaments will grow further in the coming time.
