Addressing the function, Secretary of
the Ho Chi Minh Communist Youth Union Central Committee Bui Quang Huy said the
meeting offers a chance for the two countries’ youth unions and youngsters to
exchange information on young people’s affairs and share experience in youth
union work and teenager movements in each nation.
Huy expressed his hope that through the
event, Chinese youths will understand more about the land, culture and people
of Vietnam – a peace-loving country; a good comrade, good friend, good
neighbour and good partner of China; and a responsible member of the
international community.
He asked the two countries’ youth
delegates to continue maintaining their role as a friendship bridge that makes
active and responsible contributions to developing the cooperation between
Vietnamese and Chinese people, especially youths.
Also at the event, the delegates had a
chance to watch a TV report recalling the 18-year journey of Vietnam-China
friendship exchanges and enjoy art performances featuring the cultures of both
countries.
The 18th Vietnam-China youth friendship
meeting is held from August 13-19, with main activities taking place in Hanoi,

The meeting has been organised in rotation in
each country since 2000, aiming to realise the common policy of the leaders of
