Australian papers highlight Party leader’s visit
VNA 06/09/2009 - An article by David Curry run on the Canberra Times on Sept. 6 described the official visit to Australia by General Secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam Nong Duc Manh as “an important diplomatic milestone” in bilateral ties.
Both countries consider the visit a chance to boost bilateral cooperation and open up a new chapter in their relationship through a mechanism of comprehensive partnership, the newspaper said.
It also quoted Prime Minister Kevin Rudd’s affirmation that Australia sees Vietnam valuable partner in Asia-Pacific and the visit by General Secretary Nong Duc Manh is a chance for the two sides to discuss measures to boost their ties.
Earlier, the Australian Associated Press (AAP) also informed about General Secretary Manh’s visit and reiterated the importance of the Vietnam-Australia relationship./.
