Bilateral relations have flourished in politics, security, and national defense, as well as economics, trade, investment, and people-to-people exchanges, Mr. Quang said. He underlined the great contributions of the people of both countries, including the Vietnamese community in Thailand, to the success of the bilateral relationship.  
“The Party and State consider overseas Vietnamese an inseparable part of the Vietnamese people and always create favorable conditions for the Vietnamese community to stabilize their life, integrate into the host country, preserve and uphold their cultural identity. Though they live abroad, their hearts are always with their homeland. I hope there will be more incentive policies to support overseas Vietnamese in difficult areas, and meet their cultural and spiritual needs,” President Quang stressed.
