(VOVworld) – A conference to review 10 years of implementing the Politburo’s resolution 36 on overseas Vietnamese affairs will be held in Hanoi on May 20-21. Nguyen Thanh Son, Deputy Foreign Minister and head of the State Committee for Overseas Vietnamese Affairs, told the press on Thursday.

“The best things we have done were the issuance of basic mechanisms and policies benefiting overseas Vietnamese. The media has helped explain the role of the State and people inside the country toward Vietnamese living abroad. The media has also conveyed the aspirations and feelings of overseas Vietnamese around the world so the Party and State will have the foundation to implement appropriate policies."

The conference will review the Party guidelines and State policies for overseas Vietnamese, revise laws and regulations to benefit them, support a united and wealthy Vietnamese community in integrating into the local country, and promote their strength in national development.
