Vietnam will continue to promote relations with Indonesia, affirmed Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung at a meeting with Indonesian Ambassador Artauli Ratna M.P Tobing, in Hanoi on January 10.
PM Dung highly valued Ms Tobing’s contributions to strengthening relations between the two countries during her working term in Vietnam. He affirmed that co-operative relations between the two countries will develop strongly, contributing to peace, stability and development in the region.
Vietnam and Indonesia share common views on both regional and international issues, said Mr Dung.
On behalf of the Vietnamese Government and people, PM Dung thanked the Indonesian Government and people for supporting Vietnam’s nomination as a non-permanent member of the UN Security Council, and for helping Vietnamese fishermen during natural disasters. However, the PM said that the current bilateral co-operation does not meet the potential for co-operation.
