The President congratulated Vietnam on successful performance as the ASEAN Chair in 2020, during which the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) was signed.

She said that Singaporean investors are keen on expanding investment in Vietnam, especially in areas of Singapore’s strength such as digital transformation, 4.0 technology, green growth and education.
She said she hopes Vietnam will control COVID-19 soon so that the two countries can recover travelling, creating favourable conditions for their investors and tourists to enter each other’s country. She revealed that Singapore is scheduled to vaccinate 70 percent of its population against COVID-19 by late this August and gradually re-open its border.
Ambassador Dung showed his impression at efforts and positive results of Singapore in its COVID-19 fight, expressing his hope that Singapore will continue to cooperate with and support Vietnam in seeking vaccine sources as well as share experience in pandemic control and vaccination.

He highlighted development potential of the sound friendship and cooperation between Vietnam and Singapore, pledging that he will do his utmost to closely work with relevant agencies at home and in the host country to promote bilateral strategic partnership, for the benefits of people of both countries, and for peace, stability and development in the region and the world.
