On the occasion, she asked the group’s standing board to outline plans for the tenure and each year, hold seminars to discuss legislature’s agenda, particularly those involving young people, as well as work closely with agencies concerned to improve professional skills.
Deputies were also urged to actively join young parliamentarians’ forums in inter-parliamentary mechanisms to which the Vietnamese NA is a member, boost ties with foreign fellows to raise mutual understanding and rally their support to Vietnam’s stance on domestic, regional and global affairs, towards improving the lawmaking body’s stature in international arena.
Phong, for his part, pledged that the group will strive to fulfill assigned tasks, hold seminars to raise young people’s awareness of the NA’s activities, and join bilateral and multilateral mechanisms in the region and the world, contributing to the success of the 14th NA.-VNA
