Applauding the contributions by PFGs, including the Vietnam-RoK Parliamentary Friendship Group, to parliamentary diplomacy, Thanh asked the parliamentarians to further bring into play their role to boost locality-to-locality cooperation between the two countries.
They should also continue serving as active contributors to the development of bilateral cooperation between the two legislatures and people-to-people exchanges, she said.
The group reported that since the start of the NA’s 15th tenure, parliamentary cooperation has played an important part in the two countries’ overall relations and reaped many encouraging results.
Leaders of the two NAs, specialized committees, and the group have maintained frequent meetings and opinion sharing.
For the time ahead, the Vietnam - RoK PFG is set to continue coordinating with relevant agencies of both sides to organize celebrations of the two countries’ anniversaries to match with the bilateral comprehensive strategic partnership. It will also work with the RoK side and Vietnamese agencies to arrange high-ranking delegation exchanges.
