He proposed the association to continue supporting and promoting the Vietnam-Czech relationship to make it more profound, substantive and effective.

Expressing his admiration for Vietnam's outstanding development, Kusy said that the association has coordinated very closely with the Vietnamese Embassy and associations of Vietnamese people in the Czech Republic and the Vietnam - Czech Friendship Association, thus contributing to promoting the Vietnam - Czech relations in general and between ministries, branches and localities of the two countries.
Kusy proposed Vietnam coordinate with the Czech Republic to promote people-to-people exchanges, creating conditions for the people of the two countries to better understand each other's country, people, and culture, including building a Vietnam culture centre in the Czech Republic. He affirmed that the Czech - Vietnam Friendship Association will do its best to stand side by side with Vietnam in the process of developing and cultivating relations between the two countries.
