In Bad Schmiedeberg city, Vu met its Mayor Martin Röthel, visited Bad Schmiedeberg Kur company and held a working session with its leaders, and joined an online exchange between the company and Ho Chi Minh City-based Military Hospital 175, during which he described health care cooperation as an important field that both sides could work closely together.

He wished that joint work between Military Hospital 175 and Bad Schmiedeberg city as well as other partners will be further promoted in the near future, including optimising the mechanism to boost the exchange of human resources, especially caregivers.

The Vietnamese Embassy will offer all possible support to coordination in the field, he said.

Director of Military Hospital 175 Maj. Gen. Nguyen Hong Son wished that both sides would facilitate the exchange of expertise and technology transfer.

Managing Director of the Bad Schmiedeberg Kur company Deddo Lehmann also expressed his hope that the two sides will step up collaboration in specific projects in the near future.

During a working session in Wittenberg city, Ambassador Vu talked with its Mayor Torsten Zugehör about the possibility of cooperation in health care, rehabilitation and tourism with Vietnamese partners.

He also wished that Wittenburg would continue creating favourable conditions for the Vietnamese community living and working in the city.
