29/09/2009

Party General Secretary Nong Duc Manh received delegations from Laos, China, Cambodia and Cuba, who are in Vietnam to attend the 7th National Congress of the Vietnam Fatherland Front (VFF) on September 28.

Prominent among the guests were Sisavat Keobunphan, Chairman of the Lao Front for National Construction; Zhang Rong-ming, Vice Chairwoman of the National Committee of the China People’s Political Consultative Conference; Min Khin, Vice President and General Secretary of the National Council of the Solidarity Front for Development of the Cambodian Motherland and Robin Rodriguez from the Cuban Committee in the Defence of the Revolution.

While welcoming the international guests’ participation in the 7th VFF Congress, General Secretary Manh emphasised the VFF’s role in gathering and encouraging people to successfully implement the national renewal process, so that Vietnam will be able to shed “underdeveloped nation” status before 2010 and become an industrial country by the end of the next decade. He said he was pleased with the growing ties between the VFF and its foreign counterparts through their exchange of delegations and the signing of numerous cooperation agreements.

For their part, the foreign guests said that they were honoured to attend the 7th VFF Congress and affirmed their determination to strengthen solidarity with the Vietnamese people. VOVNews/VN
