At the event, the Hoa Binh leaders informed the diplomats on the local socio-economic development, international integration and foreign relations.

The Secretary of the provincial Party Committee expressed his hope for further support from the ministry. He requested the provincial People’s Committee to proactively work with the ministry’s units to build a coordination programme between the sides.
Minister Son suggested the province pay more attention to economic diplomacy, investment promotion, and expansion of partnerships with Chinese, Japanese and RoK partners and those from the Southeast Asian region. Focus should be given to tourism cooperation and culture diplomacy, which are Hoa Binh’s strengths.
He also asked relevant units to assist the province in speeding up the compilation of a dossier to seek UNESCO's recognition of the Mo Muong cultural heritage and completion of a similar dossier for the Hoa Binh Culture.
