Vietnam vows to boost ASEAN-China relations

 “Vietnam will do its best to strengthen the relationship between ASEAN and China,” said Vietnamese Ambassador to China, Nguyen Van Tho.

Mr Tho made the commitment while attending a ceremony in Beijing on April 5 to mark the 60th anniversary of the broadcasting of four languages (Burmese, Thai, Indonesian and Vietnamese) on China Radio International (CRI).

Addressing the event, Mr Tho said, as an ASEAN Chair, Vietnam will exert constant effort to develop ASEAN-China strategic partnership.

He also emphasised that in 2010, Vietnam and China will celebrate the 60th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations. Various activities will take place during this occasion to strengthen bilateral ties, promote mutual understanding and boost comprehensive cooperation.

The same day, CRI also inaugurated a website on ASEAN-China relations at http://asean.cri.cn, published in many foreign languages, including Vietnamese, Laos, Cambodian, Thai, Indonesian, Tagalog, Malaysian and Burmese. The website highlights the cooperation between China and ASEAN member countries, particularly activities in the ASEAN-China Free Trade Area (FTA).
