Deputy Prime Minister and Education Minister Nguyen Thien Nhan concluded an eight-day visit to China on May 1 after reaching an agreement with Vietnam’s northern neighbour to help the country with tertiary and post-graduate education.

During his stay in Beijing, Nhan had several meetings with Chinese leaders, including Education Minister Zhou Ji, during which China pledged to provide assistance in training 1,000 PhD holders up to the year 2020 and examine the standard of tertiary education in Vietnam.

The two education ministers also signed an agreement to recognise bachelor degrees from each other’s universities.

On April 30, Nhan met with the Chairman of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference National Committee, Jia Qinglin, who welcomed his visit as a concrete step to taking relations in education, culture, sports, tourism and science-technology to a new height.

“These areas are of primary and strategic significance in strengthening friendship and mutual understanding between the two peoples,” the Chinese leader said.

Host and guest both expressed satisfaction at the huge leaps forward in bilateral relations since the General Secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam, Nong Duc Manh, and his Communist Party of China counterpart, Hu Jintao, made a commitment to build a “comprehensive and strategic cooperation partnership” in May 2008.

They shared a view that regular high-level visits have contributed to promoting mutual trust and cooperation between the two countries.

The two sides also reached a consensus on ways of strengthening bilateral cooperation in the topics discussed.

They emphasised the significance of the decision made by the Prime Ministers of both Governments to celebrate 2010 when both countries mark their 60 th anniversary of establishing diplomatic ties as the “Year of Vietnam-China Friendship”.

It would be an opportunity for the two countries to launch exchange programmes in culture, the arts and promote tourism to develop mutual understanding and friendship between the two peoples, they concluded.

In addition to Beijing, the Vietnamese delegation visited Guangdong and Hunan provinces and Shanghai to meet their authorities and discuss ways of boosting bilateral cooperation in education-training, culture, sports and tourism.

Deputy PM Nhan witnessed the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding in evaluating and rating Vietnamese universities between the Inspection Department of the Ministry of Education and Training and the University of Transport in Shanghai.
