In his speech, Binh emphasised the significance of the forum for economies in the Asia-Pacific region. The forum brought together leading judicial officials from regional countries and representatives from relevant ministries, agencies, and businesses to exchange experience and promote justice, protect citizens’ rights, and ensure economic security. Themed “national and international regulations on customs relations,” the forum focused on national economic integration and customs law, and coordination between countries in settling customs-related disputes. This year’s event attracted representatives from Vietnam, the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, China, Kazakhstan, the Philippines, and the host country.
