President Lương Cường and the Vietnamese delegation’s presence at the 32nd APEC Economic Leaders’ Week helps demonstrate the country's strong commitment to the process of economic cooperation and integration in the Asia-Pacific region.

Within the APEC framework, Việt Nam’s participation is of great importance. The country continues to play an important role in promoting economic growth and recovery in the Asia-Pacific region and globally as the APEC Chair in 2027, a key member of ASEAN, and a dynamic emerging economy.

Both sides expressed satisfaction with the robust growth of Việt Nam–China relations and the positive progress in mutually beneficial exchanges and cooperation between ministries, sectors, and localities of Việt Nam and Guangdong.

Presenting the decisions and assigning tasks, National Assembly Chairman Mẫn said that these appointments demonstrate the close attention of the NA Party Committee's Standing Board to personnel affairs and Party-building work within its subordinate Party committees and advisory bodies.

The Vietnamese National Assembly attaches great importance to, and seeks to learn from the legislative and supervisory experience of countries with developed rule-of-law systems and well-established institutional frameworks, including Germany, in order to apply them appropriately to Việt Nam’s context, said National Assembly Chairman Trần Thanh Mẫn.
