Deputy Prime Minister Hoang Trung Hai left Mozambique on August 1, concluding his official visit to the African country.
Earlier on July 31, the Deputy PM had a meeting with Speaker of the Mozambique Parliament Veronica Macamo who noted that economic and trade partnership between Mozambique and Vietnam has yet to match their high cooperation potentials.
In the future, both sides should work closely to boost the friendship and cooperation in all fields, including legislation, she said, expressing hope that the Vietnamese Government delegation’s visit will open a new chapter in bilateral ties.
On his part, the Deputy PM briefed his host on the recent socio-economic situation in Vietnam, stating that with similarities between the two countries, Vietnam and Mozambique could support each other for mutual progress.
The same day, Hai and his entourage visited Movitel, a joint venture between Vietnam’s Viettel Group and Mozambique’s telecommunications sector. After three years of operation, Movitel has risen as one of the three largest telecommunication firms in the African country.
Also on July 31, the Deputy PM attended a ceremony to mark the 40 th anniversary of the Vietnam-Mozambique diplomatic ties.
Addressing the event, Vietnam’s Deputy Foreign Minister Vu Hong Nam and his Mozambique counterpart Nyeleti Mondlane noted that over the past four decades, the bilateral relationship has been expanded significantly.
They expressed belief that the Deputy PM’s visit would further deepen economic, trade and investment collaboration between the two countries.
