HCM City (VNA) - Ho Chi Minh City’s Committee for Overseas Vietnamese Affairs is to step up dissemination to raise awareness of policies and regulations of the Party and State, contributing to upholding great national solidarity and patriotism of Vietnamese people at home and abroad. 

During a conference to launch its orientations and tasks this year held on March 11, head of the committee Phung Cong Dung affirmed that the Vietnamese community abroad is an inseparable part of the nation, adding that HCM City has hosted various events for the OVs and took note of their recommendations for the southern hub’s development.
