" He also hoped that “international and Vietnamese researchers and experts continue to examine and clarify the guidelines and policies; and their rationale, effectiveness, scope and impact degree; at the same time there are lessons to be learned from the reality of each country, which is a basis of developmental policies and enhancing opportunities for bilateral and multilateral cooperation between countries today".
