PM Chinh, who has been in the US to attend the high-level week of the UN General Assembly’s 78th session, said that there remains ample room to boost bilateral cooperation, particularly in economics, trade, people-to-people exchanges, science and technology, and innovation.
Agreeing with PM Chinh’s opinions, Adams asserted that New York city values and is willing to further strengthen the friendship and effective and practical cooperation with Vietnam, thus contributing more actively to the overall development of the two countries' relations as well as its relationship with Ho Chi Minh City with which it has just signed the minutes on the establishment of friendship and cooperation, especially in the fields of innovation, environmental protection, and youth exchanges.
He confirmed that there will be measures to support Ho Chi Minh City, contributing to turning it into a strong financial centre in the region and the world.
