He said thanks to mass media, he knew that the CPV is vigorously intensifying the fight against corruption and the policy of streamlining the state apparatus from central to local levels.
Expressing joy at the renewal moves and the recent changes in the country through many major policies of the Party and State, Nam believed that if these policies are implemented thoroughly, the overseas Vietnamese community will respond enthusiastically to and support them.
As a Vietnamese living away from the homeland, he said he always hopes to see a strong Vietnam that continues to advance further. To achieve this, he emphasised that Vietnam needs to persistently pursue these renewal policies.
He expressed his wish that under the leadership of the CPV, Vietnam will reach agreements with Cambodia that ensure long-term benefits of both sides, including the living conditions and legal status of the overseas Vietnamese in Cambodia.
He expressed a desire that in the coming time, the leaders and relevant authorities of Vietnam and Cambodia will continue to discuss to find solutions to support people of Vietnamese origin in Cambodia.
