VOV.VN - Vietnam Fatherland Front (VFF) Central Committee President Nguyen Thien Nhan has suggested overseas Vietnamese (OVs) should introduce traditional culture to Vietnamese generations abroad and international friends at a meeting with 100 outstanding OVs on January 20.
The VFF leader told them that the committee and agencies are working on a plan to help Vietnamese nationals abroad preserve Vietnamese identity and language, adding that he wants them join hands for the homeland development, especially in the area of start-up and make greater contributions to reinforcing ties between Vietnam and international friends.
Participants urged relevant agencies to ease traffic congestion, deal with environment pollution and unsafe food while accelerating administrative reform to attract foreign direct investment.
It is essential to increase external information services, diversify information channels and provide a full database on seas and islands sovereignty, they said, adding that start-up projects should consult intellectuals and businesspeople overseas to achieve the best results, they said.
According to them, competent agencies should closely liaison with the overseas Vietnamese communities abroad to bring more students to foreign countries to improve foreign language skills and expertise.
As many as 100 outstanding overseas Vietnamese will attend the annual Xuan Que Huong (Homeland Spring) programme set for later this month.
