The host welcomed the enhancement of people-to-people exchanges between the two countries and pledged to engage with relevant authorities to create favourable conditions for Vietnamese students to study in South Australia.
Ambassador Tam mentioned the potential for economic, trade, investment, and tourism cooperation between the two countries, saying that in 2024 many delegations of localities and enterprises will visit Australia to seek opportunities for trade and investment promotion.
According to the diplomat, as many as 97,500 Australian tourists visited Vietnam in the first two months of 2024, equal to 25% of the total in 2023. The two countries have operated additional direct flights, thus further boosting the number of two-way tourists.
He proposed specific initiatives to promote economic, trade, and tourism cooperation between the two countries, including opening up markets for Vietnamese agricultural products, enhancing cooperation between retail associations, and intensifying collaboration in developing green economy and renewable energy.
