Sustainable Vietnam-UK Network development hailed
(VOV) - The Vietnam-UK Network Chairman Ben Chapman has praised the sustainable development of the network over the past year as a contribution to developing bilateral relations between the two nations.
Chapman told a January 15 ceremony in London that the network will continue to expand its operations and promote high-level exchange visits as well as people-to-people exchanges to strengthen mutual understanding.
The Vietnam-UK Network was established last January during Party General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong’s historic visit to London.
Lord Stephen Green, a speaker at the ceremony, emphasized that UK businesses, especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) have many opportunities to do business in Vietnam thanks to its prestigious brand names in the Southeast Asian nation, especially in sports and education.
Lord Green was surprised to know that Vietnam has 15 million fans for the Manchester United Football Club during his visit to Vietnam last year which creates possible conditions for his nation to become involved in sports events in Vietnam such as ASIAD 18 in 2019.
In addition, many projects on the establishment of UK universities in Vietnam have also been formulated, helping further promote education cooperation between the two countries.
