Prof. Dr. Nguyen Van Minh, former rector of the Hanoi National University of Education, said basic research not only generates new knowledge but also fosters innovation and improves the quality of economic growth. Vietnam's growing research capacity has enhanced its regional and international standing while contributing to sustainable development, strategic autonomy, national defence and governance.

The Ministry of Science and Technology has approved a programme on excellent basic research in the natural sciences, setting the goal for Vietnam to develop by 2030 at least one research direction that approaches the world’s top 5% in terms of scientific impact, rising to at least three such directions by 2035.

President Tran Dai Quang has praised the Vietnam-Russia Tropical Centre for its contributions to promoting scientific research and socio-economic development, and ensuring defence-security in each country, thus strengthening the traditional friendship and strategic cooperation between the two nations.
