The Norwegian Government's new Vietnam Strategy can now be read online in Norwegian, Vietnamese and English:
29/07/2008 :: Dear Reader,
The friendly and cooperative ties between Norway and Viet Nam have been developed over more than three decades, with significant records of productive cooperation in areas of governance, ship-building, fisheries, oil and gas, telecom and energy. Norway is in addition actively assisting Viet Nam in the renewal process, poverty reduction and international integration.
The success of the recent state visit of President Nguyen Minh Triet to Norway on 5-6 June, 2008 provides a good basis to lift Norway-Vietnam relations to a new height. Cooperation on petroleum management, fisheries, environment, climate change, gender, and human rights will be further promoted. Both parties actively support UN reforms.
On this occasion, the Royal Norwegian Embassy to Vietnam would like to present to you a copy of the “Vietnam Strategy”, which was launched by the Norwegian Government during the State Visit.
I hope that you will find this informative and useful.
Thank you.
H.E. Mr. Kjell Storløkken
Ambassador
