Measures to strengthen the connection between overseas Vietnamese (OV) and the home country to tap their expertise in science, technology, education, culture and society, were discussed at a meeting in HCM City on July 8.
The large number of overseas Vietnamese intellectuals who are trained in developed countries is a great treasure that can help the country shorten its industrialisation process and integration into the market economy, said President of the HCM City Chapter of the Association for Liaison with Overseas Vietnamese Luong Bach Van.
Deputy Head of the HCM City Institute of Physics Duong Minh Tri, an overseas Vietnamese intellectual who has made contributions to the country over the past 25 years, said young overseas Vietnamese should gather valuable experiences and maintain good contacts in their host countries before returning to Vietnam as they will be useful for their activities in the homeland.
Participants also pointed to hindrances that prevent foreign intellectuals from taking part in the homeland’s development.
Professor Vu Duc Vuong, an OV from the US said administrative procedures should be further simplified and more efforts taken to boost trust and connection with OVs./.
