The suspected double suicide bombing killed three officers and injured five other officers and five civilians. Two bombers, both male, also died in the blasts.
Ambassador Tuan said the embassy contacted local administrative agencies after the blasts to collect information.
No Vietnamese live in Kampung Melayu, he added.
He warned Vietnamese expats in Indonesia to be careful and avoid crowded places or violent hotspots during Ramadan, which often sees security problems.
