Message of President of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam Vo Van Thuong
Sending a message to the Conference, on behalf of the State and People of Vietnam, President Vo Van Thuong warmly welcomed the delegations and distinguished guests to the 9th Global Conference of Young Parliamentarians organized by the National Assembly of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam in coordination with the Inter-Parliamentary Union in the capital Hanoi, the City for Peace, the city of hospitality, the center of convergence and crystallization of Vietnamese culture.
President Vo Van Thuong said, “Youth is the spring of society”, the age of “moving mountains and filling seas”. Young people have great advantages in taking advantage of opportunities, especially those brought about by the Fourth Industrial Revolution. They are the force holding the key to opening new doors, new ways of thinking and doing to effectively handle common global challenges in the present and the future.
The President highly appreciated the theme “The role of youth in promoting the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals through digital transformation and innovation” of this Conference because it reflects our common concern on how to take advantage of the remarkable achievements brought about by science, technology and innovation, strengthen international cooperation and linkages to further accelerate the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals, and expand the participation of youth in solving global issues, contributing to peace and prosperity for all countries in the world.
President Vo Van Thuong believes that the Vietnamese National Assembly will continue to cooperate with parliaments of other countries to turn recommendations and resolutions of the Inter-Parliamentary Union in general and the Global Conference of Young Parliamentarians in particular into concrete actions, thereby making practical and effective contributions to peace, stability and sustainable development in the region and the world.
At the same time, I hope that each young parliamentarian will be a dynamic and creative Ambassador of friendship, connecting parliaments and people of all countries for a better world for everyone.
