Mustari Irawan, Director-General of the National Archives of Indonesia (NAI), said the traditional cooperation between Vietnam and Indonesia has developed strongly over the past time, especially after the two countries lifted their relationship to a strategic partnership during the official visit to Indonesia by President Truong Tan Sang in June 2013.
Reviewing developments in the bilateral ties, Mustari Irawan noted his belief that the collaboration will continue to prosper in various fields ranging from economics, politics, national defence and security to culture and tourism.
Hailing the NAI’s efforts in collecting and preserving such documents, Ambassador Hoang Anh Tuan stressed the need for better affiliation between the two nations and their archives agencies in organising such activities as exhibitions to promote the land, people, culture and socio-economic achievements in each country as well as their friendship and cooperation.
