At a meeting with President of Japan’s Board of Audit Teruhiko Kawato in Hanoi on Monday, Mr. Hien asked the two audit agencies to step up coordination in auditing joint projects, and strengthen their ties within bilateral and multilateral frameworks. The NA Vice Chairman expressed his hope that Japan would support the State Audit of Vietnam to participate in training activities and fulfill its role as a member of the ASOSAI Governing Board for 2015-2024 and the ASOSAI Chairman for 2018-2021.
