The Swedish Speaker will hold talks with National Assembly Chairman Nguyen Sinh Hung and pay a courtesy call on PM Nguyen Tan Dung.
He will also have separate meetings with Minister of Health Nguyen Thi Kim Tien and Minister of Transport Dinh La Thang.
Health and transport have been identified as two potential sectors of intensified business opportunities and technology transfer between Sweden and Viet Nam.
Speaker Ahlin is also scheduled to participate in a field visit to ABB’s transformer factory in Bac Ninh province and join a campaign to raise public awareness about traffic safety.
Sweden was the first Western country to establish diplomatic relations with Viet Nam in 1969.
