Việt Nam’s foreign policy was reaffirmed as a commitment to an independent and self-reliant diplomatic path, refraining from taking sides in competition among major powers.
Associate Professor Dr. Neak Chandarith said General Secretary and President Tô Lâm demonstrated a clear understanding of global challenges and presented a balanced voice that advocates sovereignty, equality and fairness for small and middle-sized nations amid an increasingly uncertain international environment.
Looking ahead to 2045, when Việt Nam aims to become a developed economy, the two countries are expected to be linked by one of the world's most advanced strategic partnerships, Professor Vũ Minh Khương noted, describing this as a distinctive feature of General Secretary and President Tô Lâm’s visit.
By moving from crisis response to proactive risk reduction, Việt Nam has positioned itself as a responsible and mature “architect” of regional peace, said a Malaysia-based expert.

Professor Dr Trần Đại Lâm, Director of the Institute of Materials Science at the Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology, spoke to the Vietnam News Agency about the challenges facing investment, commercialisation and talent development in materials science, a field increasingly viewed as critical to Việt Nam's technological ambitions.
Speaking to the Vietnam News Agency ahead of the visit, scheduled for May 31-June 1, Vietnamese Ambassador to the Philippines Lại Thái Bình highlighted the significance of the trip as the two countries are celebrating the 50th anniversary of diplomatic relations (1976-2026).
Both nations share a strong commitment to a rules-based international order and the peaceful settlement of disputes, creating a model of regional governance that other countries can follow.
International media outlets have suggested that partners now view Việt Nam not only as a dynamic economy but also as a factor shaping regional cooperation structure and strategic balance.
