Binh Duong (VNA) - Chairman of the Binh Duong People’s Committee Vo Van Minh on April 25 met with Australian Ambassador to Vietnam Andrew Goledzinowski, as part of the latter’s visit to the southern province.

Minh said he wishes to forge cooperation between Binh Duong and Australian localities in various fields, including economy, finance, science-technology, smart city development, digital transformation, environmental protection, and English language training for the province’s officials, civil servants, and teachers.

The diplomat informed his host about the establishment of an investment promotion team in Ho Chi Minh City to boost investment cooperation between the two countries, with the aim of taking Australia back to the third position among foreign investors in Vietnam.

The ambassador said he will attend the requiem and reburial ceremony on April 26 for remains of war martyrs at the Binh Duong Martyrs Cemetery, which were found with the assistance of Australian war veterans.
Chairman Minh shared with the diplomat the search for martyrs' remains in the province, which has been underway for nearly a month in Bac Tan Uyen district with direct support from Duncan Reid, Assistant Defence Attaché at the Australian Embassy in Vietnam and veteran Luke Johnston.
He said the search found about 20 sets of remains believed to be officers and soldiers of the southern liberation army’s Division 7, who died in a battle against the Australian army force in May 1968./.
