He said the seminar was an occasion for the two sides todiscuss and work out solutions to challenges. As SoEs form a crucial force fornational modernisation in each country, it is necessary to develop leading andopen businesses with rich vitality that serve as pillars of the national economies,help with social stability, and are able to cope with crises.

At theevent, participants discussed results and lessons of state-owned capital andasset management in China, SoE reform experiences and issues in Vietnam, alongwith other major matters.
