The current visit by a delegation of the Chinese National People’s Congress (NPC) will deepen the fine relations between the two countries, said a senior official of the National Assembly of Vietnam.
Vice Chairman of the National Assembly Nguyen Duc Kien made the remark while receiving a visiting Chinese delegation from the NPC Finance and Economics Committee, led by Wang Shucheng, its Deputy Chairman and member of the NPC Standing Committee, in Hanoi on April 21.
Kien said that despite the impact of the global economic crisis, two-way trade between the two countries hit 22 billion USD with Vietnam registering a trade deficit. China ’s investment in Vietnam increased, however, disbursement of registered capital was slow.
The NA Vice Chairman asked the Chinese parliament and government to coordinate to develop balanced trade relations with Vietnam and accelerate investment projects in the country.
He expressed pleasure at the fine development of relations between the two parliaments, which have seen exchanges of delegations, information and experiences between the two sides.
Wang said that the visit was aimed at boosting understanding and exchanging experiences with Vietnam, especially in solving problems in development, including energy security, environmental protection, raising farmers’ incomes and developing healthcare and education to secure quality growth.
While visiting Vietnam from April 20-25, the Chinese delegation worked with officials from the NA Committee for Finance and Budget and the Ministry of Planning and Investment.
They also planned to visit the northern coastal province of Quang Ninh, Ho Chi Minh City and the southern province of Ba Ria-Vung Tau./.
