Deputy Foreign Minister Dao Viet Trung, who co-chaired the meeting, said he believed Vietnam-Thailand cooperation in the fields would contribute to promoting economic growth, politics, security and tourism in each country, the region and the world as well, especially when Southeast Asia is striving for an ASEAN Community by 2015. He also delivered Vietnam’s commitment to greater efforts to strengthen the two countries’ political and security cooperation in particular and stability in the region and the world at large.
