Given the similarities between the two countries, Ambassador Nguyen Phuong Nga believes that Vietnam-Bangladesh and ASEAN-Bangladesh will continue to closely cooperate towards sustainable development.
In her remarks, Ambassador Samina Naz discusses the activities carried out by the Bangladesh Embassy in recent years. The Embassy not only focuses on political and diplomatic affairs but also strives to integrate and engage with the local community.
During the Covid-19 pandemic, the Embassy participated in humanitarian programs such as voluntary blood donation and providing food support to disadvantaged individuals in Vietnam. In 2021, officials and employees of the Bangladesh Embassy took part in three blood donation drives to save lives. These events helped foster a closer connection between the Ambassador and the people of Vietnam.
