  • assess the progress achieved and challenges encountered since the 3rd Partnership Forum meeting held in Hanoi in June 2015;
  • review the current areas of technical cooperation; and
  • identify new areas for cooperation, and to exchange views on issues of mutual interest.

 

The relationship between South Africa and Vietnam goes back many years before the formal establishment of diplomatic relations in December 1993.
