Binh highlighted the two nations’ frequent exchange of all-level delegations and cooperation across Party, state, and parliamentary channels, as well as their mutual support at regional and multilateral forums.

Despite positive economic ties, he pointed out that bilateral trade remains below its potential, urging expanded collaboration to reach the US$1 billion threshold. He also stressed the importance of boosting cultural exchange, education, tourism, and people-to-people exchanges.

On anti-corruption efforts, Binh praised Kazakhstan’s achievements, reflected in its improved Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI), and welcomed the Kazakh delegation’s working session with Vietnam’s Government Inspectorate, hoping for practical outcomes.

For his part, Chairman Zhumagali A.Zh expressed Kazakhstan’s interest in learning from Vietnam’s anti-corruption drive and administrative reforms.

He hoped the upcoming high-level visit of Vietnamese leaders to Kazakhstan scheduled for this May would pave the way for a memorandum of understanding between the two anti-corruption agencies.

Deputy PM Binh also expressed his hope that the document will be signed, contributing to the development of the two agencies' relations.
