They also held working sessions in Marseille city and other localities in southern France.
Talking to a VOV correspondent in France, Ly explained the visit intends to strengthen Vietnam’s friendship and cooperation with France - especially in legislatures, law amendments, and judiciary - as a way of promoting State governance and improving law enforcement and legal protection.

Vietnam wants to learn from France’s experiences in increasing the effectiveness of local administration and closely linking central and local authorities, Ly said.
He also thanked the French Government for the technical assistance it has offered Vietnam’s legislature.
Senator Gérard Miquel, Vice Chairman of the France-Vietnam Friendship Parliamentary Group, praised Vietnam’s remarkable achievements in socio-economic development and law reform. He also suggested Vietnam should simplify legal documents to enhance the efficiency of law enforcement.
