In his speech at the ceremony, Ambassador He Wei provided an overview of the long-standing friendship and comprehensive cooperation between Viet Nam and China as well as the latest updates on the two countries’ economies in a simple and easy-to-understand manner. Specifically, the trade between China and Viet Nam reached 260 billion USD in 2024.
Ambassador He Wei also emphasised that once the new railway connecting China and Viet Nam is completed, economic cooperation between the two countries will be strengthened.
Ambassador He Wei expressed his hope that the students who received the scholarships will continue to study hard, grow stronger and strive to make great contributions to Viet Nam's path toward socialism and to become successors to the cause of China-Viet Nam friendship.
Attending the ceremony, Tran Thi Phuong, Permanent Vice Chairwoman of the Ha Noi Union of Friendship Organisations, emphasised that this was an important event demonstrating the traditional friendship and practical cooperation between Viet Nam and China, as well as the great concern shown by the Chinese Embassy in Viet Nam for education and training in Ha Noi in particular and throughout Viet Nam in general.
She expressed her sincere gratitude to Ambassador He Wei and all staff of the Chinese Embassy in Viet Nam for their long-term close cooperation with the Ha Noi Union of Friendship Organisations in various areas such as people-to-people exchanges, educational cooperation, and cultural activities.
Phuong also expressed her firm belief that the students will make good use of this scholarship, continue to nurture their dreams, gain greater achievements in studying, and cultivate knowledge, skills and the confidence needed for international integration so that they may become key contributors to the development of the capital and the country, as well as bridges that further strengthen the friendship between the two nations.
