He affirmed that the Vietnamese people in Australia will continue efforts to develop the homeland.
The same day, PM Phuc met with representatives from the club of Vietnamese scientists living in Australia’s Queensland state, in which he noted that the club establishment has crucial roles in bolstering cooperation between the two countries.
