Nagasaki Governor Nakamura Houdou said he highly values HCM City’s economic potential and hopes to deepen collaboration with the city based on the two nations’ traditional friendship.
In turn, Chairman of the municipal People’s Committee Le Hoang Quan said the HCM City visit by the Nagasaki Governor will help promote the two localities’ collaboration in economics, culture, education and tourism, reinforcing the thriving relations between Vietnam and Japan.
