"The Party, State and people greatly appreciate the patriotism and valuable contributions of overseas Vietnamese," he said.
Manh said he believed overseas Vietnamese would continue their patriotism, strengthen their communities, and join forces to build a thriving Viet Nam.
He stressed that there were both opportunities and challenges facing the country at present so all Vietnamese people, both at home and abroad, must do their utmost for the common cause.
After affirming that overseas Vietnamese are integral to the nation's growth, Manh urged them to make recommendations for the draft documents to be submitted to the 11th National Party Congress as a way to contribute to the goal of fostering a rich people, a strong nation and a democratic, fair and civilised society.
The Party leaders expressed his pleasure that many overseas Vietnamese had successfully invested and done business in Viet Nam, and that a number of artists had organised exhibitions bringing attention to the country.
Representatives said they were delighted to witness Viet Nam's enormous achievements in the doi moi (renewal) process and national construction, citing the ongoing celebrations as evidence.
They thanked the Party and State for their support and promised to contribute more to the development of their home country. — VNS
