SYDNEY — The Vietnamese Australian Scholars and Experts Association (VASEA) has made important contributions to developing human resources as well as cooperation projects between the two nations, Vietnamese Deputy Ambassador to Australia Nghiêm Xuân Hòa said while attending the association’s first annual congress on June 2. Since its establishment in August 2023, VASEA has become a common house for scholars and specialists of the Vietnamese origin to exchange knowledge, expertise and experience, contributing to the development of the two countries as well as their bilateral ties. Various activities have been held by the association, including conferences and short courses on digital transformation, energy efficiency, carbon market, climate change, leadership skills for sustainable development, digital economy and energy transition. In his online speech, Australian Ambassador to Việt Nam Andrew Goledzinowski held that the Việt Nam – Australia Comprehensive Strategic Partnership should be endorsed not only by government agencies but also the private sector, universities, and organisations like VASEA. He spoke highly of VASEA’s activities which back Việt Nam’s transition to green energy, and encouraged it to serve as a bridge to further connect Việt Nam and Australia for the common prosperity and success.
