In these working sessions, Thao affirmed that the Vietnamese Government and people always remember Hungary’s support in the field of human resources training. She agreed with Mayor László Papp’s proposal on collaboration orientation in labour.
The ambassador also thanked the leaders of Hajdú-Bihar for creating favourable conditions for Vietnamese citizens; and pledged to support and connect the county with other Vietnamese localities, such as Tuyen Quang, which also has strengths and potential in hot mineral springs, and continue to promote training cooperation, especially for high-quality technical workers.
The Hungarian side expressed their hope to enhance cooperation with Vietnamese partners in culture, tourism and labour, and committed to speeding up support activities and technology transfer for Vietnamese localities.
A representative of the University of Debrecen - Hungary's second largest tertiary educational facility with about 40,000 students a year, expressed a desire to promote cooperation with Vietnam through expert exchange, adding that the university is ready to provide its scholarships to Vietnamese students (besides the number of scholarships according to the two Governments’ agreement), especially in its strong fields like agriculture, medicine, pharmacy, and farm produce and food processing. At present, there are 221 Vietnamese students learning in the university./.
