Dubai (VNA) – Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh has suggested the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC) cooperate with Vietnam in developing financial services and supporting the development of the Ho Chi Minh City Financial Centre.

Receiving Arif Amiri, Chief Executive Officer of DIFC Authority, in Dubai on October 28 afternoon (local time) as part of his official visit to the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Chinh spoke highly of the DIFC – one of the world’s leading financial centres.

He also expressed his impression at the strong development of the UAE, including Dubai.

For his part, Arif Amiri said he is impressed by Vietnam's socio-economic development achievements in recent times. He suggested the Southeast Asian nation promote the development of financial services to create a foundation for trade development and investment attraction.

He also showed his willingness to share experience in building a financial centre and collaborate with Vietnam in the field of financial services. He said he wishes to soon visit Vietnam, especially HCM City, to concretise the cooperation contents as proposed by the Vietnamese Government leader.

On the same day, PM Chinh visited the Museum of the Future - a new symbol of Dubai city, with many spaces to help visitors imagine the world in the next 50 years./.

14th National Party Congress: Vietnam’s strategic shift in new era

Vietnam now stands at the threshold of a new development era, driven by strong aspirations and substantial potential. The 14th Party Congress is, therefore, of decisive importance for the country’s future transformations, particularly amid an international environment marked by uncertainty and volatility. While this phase may be among the most complex of the renewal process, it also presents a critical opportunity for Vietnam to break through and evolve from an “Asian tiger” into a regional “dragon.”
