NA Chairman Vuong Dinh Hue comes to the National Convention Centre to check the preparation work for the conference.

Giving comments on the preparation work and technical support, the top legislator ordered competent units to organize the event in line with the Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU)’s charter as well as the host nation’s traditional culture and practical conditions.

Earlier, Hue thanked IPU, IPU Forum of Young Parliamentarians, and Vietnamese ministries, sectors and agencies for their close coordination to prepare for the event.

Being the only large multilateral parliamentary event of Vietnam in 2023, the conference is an opportunity to popularise Vietnam as a modern and dynamic country, which boasts rich cultural identity, and deeply integrates into the world, he stressed.

Meanwhile, member of the National Assembly of Namibia Emma Tangi Muteka, who is also member of the IPU Forum of Young Parliamentarians, spoke highly of the host’s preparations and hospitality.

The 9th Global Conference of Young Parliamentarians with the theme “the role of young people in accelerating sustainable development goals by digital transformation and innovation” is hosted by the Vietnamese National Assembly from September 14-17. Nearly 500 domestic and international delegates are attending the event, discussing ways to promote the role of the youth in speeding up the progress of sustainable development goals.
