The statue of late President Hồ Chí Minh in Luanda was inaugurated in July 2023, and has since become a meaningful site of remembrance for overseas Vietnamese in Angola and visiting delegations from Việt Nam.

With almost two-thirds of the year behind us, PM Phạm Minh Chính is calling for urgent, coordinated action to meet Việt Nam’s growth and reform targets before the end of the 2021–2025 term.

The visit is made at the invitation of President of the Republic of Korea Lee Jae Myung and his spouse, according to a press release from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on Thursday.

The NA Standing Committee agreed to add several draft laws to the 2025 legislative agenda.

Foreign Minister of the Republic of Korea Cho Hyun expressed his pleasure at holding his first talk with the Vietnamese official, affirming that he will continue close cooperation with Việt Nam to advance the Việt Nam – RoK comprehensive strategic partnership across all areas.

Deputy PM Trần Hồng Hà stressed that while model housing designs should be flexible and updated regularly, they must also ensure quality, enable replication on a broader scale and allow room for creativity among architects and developers.
