Viet Nam, Brunei vow to double trade

Viet Nam and Brunei will work towards doubling trade as soon as possible. This was among the key takeways from talks in Hanoi on Monday between State President Lương Cường and Sultan of Brunei Haji Hassanal Bolkiah, who is on a three-day state visit to Vietnam. 

Both leaders welcomed the strong and stable development of bilateral ties, particularly since the 2019 upgrade to a Comprehensive Partnership. Political and diplomatic relations have been increasingly consolidated through regular all-level visits and meetings across all channels, alongside the productive bilateral cooperation mechanisms, and the smooth progress of the 2023–2027 Plan of Action.
