Mr. Quang also treasured the Ambassador’s effort to the success of high-ranking visits, the lifting of the bilateral ties to the Strategic Partnership for Peace and Prosperity in Asia and the introduction of the Joint Vision Statement on Japan-Viet Nam Relations.

Finally, the Head of State hoped that Ambassador Hiroshi Fukada would serve as a bridge to connect respective localities, businesses, and people and nurture the bilateral ties.

In reply, Ambassador Hiroshi Fukada was convinced that the friendly and cooperative ties between Viet Nam and Japan would flourish in the coming time./.
