He thanked the SAO for sending experts to Vietnam to give training and share experiences in state budget and health care system audits, and human resources management within the framework of a project funded by the Hungarian International Development Assistance for the 2009-2011 period, and for inviting and sponsoring for SAV representatives to travel to Hungary to attend seminars on enhancing integrity and transparency in the public sector (2014-2022).

He proposed the two sides further strengthen their cooperation in accordance with the needs and strengths of each side, consider re-signing the bilateral cooperation agreement, that expired in 2023, at a suitable time in 2025 when the two countries celebrate the 75th anniversary of establishment of their diplomatic relations.

The SAO Vice Presidents agreed with Vinh’s proposal regarding the agreement re-signing, and agreed to assign the two sides’ international cooperation departments to work on it.
