Viet Nam’s development achievements and growing international role have made the country an inspiring partner for the Francophone community, according to Rigobert Pinga-Pinga, Acting Representative of the International Organisation of La Francophonie (OIF) for Asia-Pacific.

Cambodia and Viet Nam are partners, friends and good neighbours, and have consistently supported each other in overcoming past difficulties and pursuing development together, Cambodian Senate Spokesperson Chea Thyrith has said.

Viet Nam stands ready to work with other members to build a united, dynamic and people-centred Francophone Community, where diversity serves as a strength for cooperation and development, Deputy Foreign Minister Nguyen Manh Cuong has said.

Secretary-General of the International Organisation of La Francophonie (OIF) Louise Mushikiwabo has praised Viet Nam's commitment to the community and expressed her hope that the country will help give Asia a stronger voice at Francophone forums.
