At the meetings, the two sides agreed to enhance delegation exchanges at all levels and through a variety of channels, particularly between those agencies which serve the most relevant interests.  The two sides agreed to step up the effective implementation of the Memorandum of Understanding on cooperation between the two parliaments and the action programme in 2016-2019 as well as agreements reached during the recent high-level visits between the two countries. They will also enhance people-to-people exchanges and promote the role of friendship associations and parliamentarian groups to reinforce understanding and cooperation.
