Within his official visit to Malaysia, the NA leader had a meeting talks with Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim, held talks with Speaker of the House of Representatives Tan Sri Dato’ Johari bin Abdul, and President of the Senate Dato’ Awang Bemee Awang Ali Basah.
At the meetings, both sides expressed their delight at the substantive progress in bilateral ties, particularly since the elevation of relations to a Comprehensive Strategic Partnership in November last year.
The two sides agreed on the importance of consolidating political trust and implementing the 2025–2030 Action Program for the Comprehensive Strategic Partnership.
They discussed measures to boost economic, trade, and investment cooperation toward the USD 18 billion trade target, with emphasis on halal products, renewable and green energy, digital transformation, agriculture, tourism, and education.
Parliamentary cooperation was also highlighted, with consensus on enhancing high-level and committee-level exchanges, promoting interaction among women and young parliamentarians, and sharing legislative experiences to support the implementation of new cooperation areas. Both sides stressed the need to jointly supervise the execution of international treaties and agreements already signed.
In Kuala Lumpur, Chairman Man had a working session with leaders of Malaysia’s national oil company Petronas, and met with staff of the Vietnamese Embassy and representatives of the Vietnamese community.
The visit has contributed to deepening political trust and advancing practical cooperation across all fields, reaffirming Vietnam’s commitment to coordinating with Malaysia and other ASEAN countries to build a resilient, inclusive, and united ASEAN Community with strengthened centrality in the regional architecture.- (VNA/VLLF)
