Themed “Strengthening parliamentary partnership for peace, security, and sustainable development”, the Forum will set priority on the goal of safeguarding peace, security and sustainable development. By attending the event, Vietnamese parliamentarians continue performing their proactive involvement in multilateral parliamentary diplomatic activities, thus heightening the country’s role and position at this forum and joining in diplomatic efforts for peace, cooperation and development. The Asia-Pacific Parliamentary Forum was established in March, 1993, with the purpose of building trust among parliaments in the Asia-Pacific via the enhancement of dialogues between regional parliamentarians.
