Sharing updates on the city’s socio-economic development, Chairman Nguyen Khac Toan said that Hue is focusing on achieving rapid and sustainable growth, advancing administrative reforms, improving the investment environment, and expanding international cooperation across multiple sectors. The city hopes to continue receiving support from the embassy in connecting with partners, promoting investment, and developing cooperation in science and technology, education and training, and, at the same time, strengthening tourism promotion, cultural exchange, and mobilizing intellectual resources from the Vietnamese community in Hungary.
Ambassador Bui Le Thai highly appreciated the delegation’s visit and noted that the traditional friendship between Vietnam and Hungary continues to develop positively, creating favorable conditions for local governments, businesses, universities, and organizations from both countries to strengthen practical cooperation.
