Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc thanked Japan for providing Official Development Assistance (ODA) to Vietnam over the past 26 years, for aiding the country’s efforts to improve the economy, for reducing poverty and for developing infrastructure.

The PM also suggested that the two countries continue fostering cooperation, to accelerate exchanges between their people and localities, and to deepen their friendship.
