Former Japanese PM receives Friendship Order
Speaking highly of activities held in Japan to celebrate the diplomatic ties, the State leader attributed the fruitful relationship between Viet Nam and Japan to the former PM’s great contributions.
He expressed his hope that Hatoyama Yukio, in his capacity as President of the Japan-Viet Nam Parliamentary Friendship Group, will make greater contributions to the friendship, especially on the plane of education.
The President said he believes that the former PM’s initiative to establish a Japan-Viet Nam University at the Hoa Lac high-tech zone in Ha Noi will come true in the next few years.
He held that the two countries boast a lot of potential for cooperation in scientific-technological application in agriculture.
For his part, Hatoyama Yukio thanked President Sang for his contributions to strengthening the Japan-Viet Nam relationship.
He presented the initiative to establish health and education centres for Japanese experts and businesses in Viet Nam, laying emphasis on the need to step up scientific-technological application in agriculture to help Vietnamese farmers raise the value of farm produce.
Hatoyama Yukio pledged to do his best in enhancing the relationship between the two countries.
During his stay in Viet Nam, the former Japanese PM is also scheduled to visit Ho Chi Minh City and the northern province of Ha Nam.
