The union along with other agencies and localities of Vietnam always wish for strong cooperation with Japanese partners so as to enhance people-to-people exchanges and multifaceted cooperation, she said.
Phuong hoped the youth exchange programme will be further expanded to help strengthen the countries’ friendship, adding that Vietnam always welcomes Japanese teenagers.
During their visit, the Vietnamese delegation will visit Japan’s world natural heritage sites, take part in exchanges with local students, and learn about Japanese culture by staying with local families.
